Hello there, I have a matrix with some data and I want to split this matrix based on the values in one column. Is there a quick way of doing this? I have looked at cut but I am not sure how to exactly use it? for example:
I would like to split the matrix "a" based on the spending such that the data is binned groups [0..99],[100..199]...and so on. a <- data.frame(patient=1:7, charges=c(100,500,200,90,400,500,600), age=c(0,3,5,7,10,16,19), spending=c(10, 60, 110, 200, 250, 400, 450)) Expected output - bin[1] <- c(10, 60) bin[2] <- c(110, 200, 250) bin[3] <- c(400, 450) NOTE that the number of data points in each bin is not the same and the empty bins are removed (since there are no points between [199..299], bin[3] starts at 400. Any help would be most appreciated. Thank you in advance.
