  You probably have a data frame, not a matrix.

I suppose this is a basic question but couldn't find a solution.:

I have a large matrix with let say 3 columns:

V1      V2      V3
a       x       2
a       x       4
a       y       8
b       z       16

and I want to compute some statistics based on the levels resulting form the combination of the two first columns

e.g.:

SUM->

V1      V2      V3
a       x       6
a       y       8
b       z       16
