All,
I have a repeated measures data frame and was wondering if the
covariance matrix can be
calculated via some created indexing or built-in R function.
Specifically, say there are 3 variables, where potassium concentration
is measured 6 times on each patient.
Patient number (discrete)
Time (1 to 6, discrete)
Potassium (continuous variable)
I want the covariance/correlation matrix for the cov/corr between
Potassium at time i and time j.
Is this possible in the current dataframe format? Or do I have to
define new varialbes, say Time i and Time j,
and then compute the cov/corr between Time i and Time j for all
combinations?
Cheers,
Dave
