[R] Interaction of a dynamic number of factors

2009-04-13 Thread Nigel Birney

Hi, I have a dynamic table structure consisting of N factors (e.g. columns
Factor_1, Factor_2,..Factor_N). 

I want to construct a table that has as rows the level combinations of
factors F_1..F_n-1, and as columns the levels of the factor Fn. The cells of
the table would contain the number of cases that correspond to these level
combinations. How can I do this?

do you mean something like this:

f1 - gl(2, 2, length = 15)
f2 - gl(3, 2, length = 15)
f3 - gl(4, 2, length = 15)
f4 - gl(5, 2, length = 15)

fcomb - interaction(f1, f2, f3)
table(fcomb, f4)


I hope it helps.

Best,
Dimitris
