Examples

### Creation of joint-trajectories
mat <- array(c(1,NA,3,2,3,6,1,8,10,1,NA,1,2,NA,3,2,3,2),dim=c(3,3,2))
(ldJoint <- longData3d(mat,varNames=c("Hyp","Som")))

### Extraction of the first variable-trajectory
(ldHyp <- longDataFrom3d(ldJoint,variable="Hyp"))

### Extraction of the second variable-trajectory
(ldSom <- longDataFrom3d(ldJoint,variable="Som"))

### Extraction of the second variable-trajectory, using number
(ldSom <- longDataFrom3d(ldJoint,variable=2))
