Hi IOANNA, I got the data but it is missing a value in Count (length 22 vs length 23 in the other two variable so I stuck in an extra 1. I hope this is correct.
There also was an attachement called winmail.dat that appears to be some kind of MicroSoft Mail note that is pure gibberish to me--I'm on a Linux box. For some reason in neither posting does your example of the output you want come through. Are you posting in html ? R-help strips any html so is there a change it stripped out a table? If i do this table(Class, X) X Class 0.1 0.2 0.3 1 4 3 0 2 7 0 0 3 1 4 4 I see that you have two combinations of Class and X with no entries. Is this what you wanted to show in W? If so, it is not immediately apparent how to go about this.
