GroupMean: Calculation of Groupwise Descriptive Statistics for Matrices

Description

Calculates some groupwise descriptive statistics.

Usage

GroupMean(data, group, weights=NULL, extend=FALSE, elim=FALSE)
GroupSum(data, group, weights=NULL, extend=FALSE)
GroupSD(data, group, weights=NULL, extend=FALSE)
# group mean of a variable
gm(y, cluster, elim=FALSE)
# centering within clusters
cwc(y, cluster)

Value

A data frame or a vector with groupwise calculated statistics

Arguments

data

A numeric data frame

group

A vector of group identifiers

weights

An optional vector of sample weights

extend

Optional logical indicating whether the group means (or sums) should be extended to the original dimensions of the dataset.

elim

Logical indicating whether a case in a row should be removed from the calculation of the mean in a cluster

y

Variable

cluster

Cluster identifier
