simplify2array(b)

help.search("simplify2array")
No help files found with alias or concept or title matching
‘simplify2array’ using fuzzy matching.
Perhaps its new, since ?simplify2array brings up a help page and it's
in base. Try updating.

A (very) short google search didn't help me either...

Subject: Re: [R] manipulating "by" lists and "ave()" functions
It does!! why is this function not mentioned in the "See also"
docpage for
"by" (and friends)??? (Also, "ave" should be mentioned there, too.)
do I post this suggestion to add it to r-devel, or is there a way
to find
out who is in charge of the docpage for "by"?
regards,

dear R wizards---more ignorance on my part, exacerbated by too few
examples in the function documentations.
d <- data.frame( id=rep(1:3,3), x=rnorm(9), y=rnorm(9))
Question 1: how do I work with the output of "by"? for example,
b <- by( d, d$id, function(x) coef(lm( y ~ x, data=x ) ))
b
d$id: 1
(Intercept) x
0.2303 0.3618
--------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------
d$id: 2
(Intercept) x
0.05785 -0.40617
--------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------
d$id: 3
(Intercept) x
0.269 -0.378
getting the categories is easy:
names(b)
[1] "1" "2" "3"
but how do I transform the non-name info in this by() data
structure
into a matrix with dimensions 3 by 2? (presumably, there is some
vector operator that can do this kind of magic.)
Question 2: Let's say I want to add only one of the two
coefficients
to d. The naive approach
a <- ave( d, d$id, FUN=function(x) coef(lm( y ~ x, data=x ))[2] )
gives me the right coefficient in each row, but overwrites every
entry. I guess I can keep only the first column of a, and add it to
d, but this seems a rather ugly and inefficient way. How is this
done
better?
Question 3: repeat question 2, but keep both the intercept
and the slope.
thanks in advance, as always, for any advice.
