RE: [R] Table Help

I'm slightly confused with aggregate, will I need to loop it until it stops
returning sub lists?  Or would I somehow need to convert my username column
into a unique list and then do FUN=sum??

Please excuse me, I was just introduced to R yesterday to calculate
statistics of over 250 gigs of text we have lol.

Thanks for the reply!

Ben,

Generally, it is OK (and encouraged) to post back to the list, just so 
we all learn from each others' posts.


Here is an example:

 a - data.frame(group=rep(letters[1:3],10),values=rnorm(30))
 a
   group   values
1  a -0.146140983
2  b  0.190071267
3  c  0.207708591
4  a -1.126531350
5  b -0.013761243
6  c -0.212028409
7  a  1.012215244
8  b -0.487072132
9  c  0.667999520
10 a  0.276094321
11 b  0.835611948
12 c -1.049264490
13 a  0.399050191
14 b -1.177174650
15 c -1.471944114
16 a -0.410480517
17 b  0.006008521
18 c  1.608219688
19 a -0.120729414
20 b  1.074361542
21 c  1.782826882
22 a  1.336191577
23 b  0.721519413
24 c -0.594837423
25 a  1.120628507
26 b -2.011601905
27 c -0.076464599
28 a -1.512376840
29 b  1.182703732
30 c -1.620904211
 aggregate(a[,2],by=list(a[,1]),sum)
  Group.1  x
1   a  0.8279207
2   b  0.3206665
3   c -0.7586886


Hope that helps.

I have a very large table that I want to add some of the certain rows.

The table is as follows:

Username1 2
Username1 4
Username2 6
Username2 10
Username3 12
Username3 10
Username3 16

Etc 

The data is sorted by Column 1 (Ie the username) then by columm 2 (The
numbers).

I want to combine the rows so it would be as follows:

Username1 6
Username2 16
Username3 38

Is there  easy way using a feature like bind to sum all of collumn two where
column 1 is the same?

Thanks!
Ben
