Dear Stefano, A practical way might be as the following
R> acc<-read.table("acc.txt",header=T) #reading your data into R R> acc.may<-acc[acc[,3]==5,] #subsetting data with respect to may R> acc.may.order<-acc.may[order(acc.may[,4]),] #ordering with respect to day R> mean(acc.may.order[1:7,5]) # mean of the period of day 1 to 7 R> mean(acc.may.order[8:14,5]) # mean of the period of day 8 to 15 This script is just for May and taking means needs manual manipulations. On the other hand, simple loops might deal with your problem such as for loop.
