Hi
The result of a summary(as.factor(x)) (see example below) call is sorted according to the factor level. How can I get the result not sorted but in the original order of the levels in x?



> test <- c(120402, 120402, 120402, 1323, 1323,200393, 200393, 200393, 200393, 200393)
> summary(as.factor(test))
1323 120402 200393
2 3 5


I need:
120402 1323 200393
     3    2      5

thanks for a hint

Use the levels argument of ?factor.

summary(factor(test, levels = unique(test)))

--sundar
