Simple operations like mean etc. can be applied using lapply but not statistical functions. --NONSENSE! func <- function(x){ ##write any function you like z <- sin(x^2-2)+rnorm(length(x)) lm(z~ seq(along=z)) } dat <- data.frame(a=1:5,b=rnorm(5)) lapply(dat,func)## could also have been inserted inline Have you read "An Introduction to R" where these sorts of things are discussed?
