Dear all, Suppose my data frame is as follows:
id price distance 1 2 4 1 3 5 ... 2 4 8 2 5 9 ... n 3 7 n 8 9 I would like to calculate the rank-order correlation between price and distance for each id. cor(price,distance,method = "spearman") calculate a correlation for all. Then I tried to use apply(data,list='id',cor(price , distance , method = "spearman")) to [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
