> There are a matrix x and a factor f.  nrow(x) == length(f), e.g.:
> x <- matrix(1:6, nrow = 3)
> f <- factor(c("daytime", "daytime", "night"))

> I want the sum of all elements of rows of "x" for each 
> corresponding level in factor "f",
> In this case, I want output like:
> "daytime" [1] x[1,1]+x[2,1]+x[1,2]+x[2,2]
> "night"   [2] x[3,1]+x[3,2]

> But, tapply(x,f,sum) or by(x,f,sum) do not work.  What other 
> functions can I use?
