Hi All,

 

I'm using the Hmisc summarize function and used list instead of llist to
provide the by variables. It generated an error message. Is this a bug,
or do I misunderstand how Hmisc works with lists? The program below
demonstrates the error message.

 

Thanks,

Bob

 

x<-1:8

group <- c(1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2)

gender<- c(1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2)

 

mydata<-data.frame(x,group,gender)

attach(mydata)

 

# Creating a list using Hmisc llist works:

summarize(x, by=llist(group,gender), FUN=mean, na.rm=TRUE) 

 

# Creating a list using built-in list function does not:

summarize(x, by= list(group,gender), FUN=mean, na.rm=TRUE)
