Thank you, William, for your help! It works great. My final call looks like this:
pars <- c(.(nodes), .(load), .(buffer), .(deflections)) ddply(i, pars, summarize, mm_created = mean(mean_created), ms_created = mean(sdev_created), mm_admitted = mean(mean_admitted), ms_admitted = mean(sdev_admitted), mm_dropped = mean(mean_dropped), ms_dropped = mean(sdev_dropped), mm_delivered = mean(mean_delivered), ms_delivered = mean(sdev_delivered)) 2012/1/18 William Dunlap <wdun...@tibco.com>: > Try using the function in the plyr package.
