Frank Harrell's Hmisc has this, and more: wtd.mean, wtd.var, wtd.quantile, wtd.ecdf, wtd.table, wtd.rank, wtd.loess.noiter, num.denom.setup Set of function for obtaining weighted estimates Hth, Dirk -- Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others. -- Groucho Marx ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
