Rajarshi -
It's not clear to me what you mean by "the distribution of levels obs.". Does

as.data.frame(table(x$obs,cut.grp1,cut.grp2))

give you something like what you want?

Hi, I have a data.frame that has a categorical variable, for which I
would like to look at the distribution of levels of this variable,
based on a grouping of two other variables.

As an example:

x <- data.frame(obs=sample(c('low', 'high'),100, replace=TRUE),
grp1=sample(1:10, 100, replace=TRUE),
grp2=runif(100))

cut.grp1 <- cut(x$grp1, 3)
cut.grp2 <- cut(x$grp2, 3)

Thus, for each combination of levels in cut.grp1 and cut.grp2, I'd
like to obtain the distribution of levels obs. I know I can loop over
each pair of levels in cut.grp1 and cut.grp2, but is there a more
elegant way to achieve this?
