calculateGroupSummaryStatistics: calculateGroupSummaryStatistics

Description

This function calculates the following statistics data within groups: length, mean, median, variance, standard error of the mean, and confidence interval bounds.

Usage

calculateGroupSummaryStatistics(x, Group)

Value

A dataframe comprising the number, mean, variance, standard error and confidence limit bounds of the data in each category

Arguments

x

The data to be summarized. This must be a vector of 2 or more numerical values

Group

The categorical data data defining the groups. This must vector of the same length as x containing factors specifying the data groups
