Hello, Try the following.
m <- 120 n <- 10 # in your case this is 1000 mat <- matrix(rnorm(n*m), nrow = m) fun <- function(x, na.rm = TRUE){ tapply(x, rep(1:12, each = 10), mean, na.rm = na.rm) } apply(mat, 2, fun) apply(mat, 2, fun, na.rm = FALSE) # alternative Hope this helps, Rui Barradas Em 04-04-2014 19:08, eliza botto escreveu:
Dear useRs, I have a matrix of 120 row and 1000 columns.What I want is to get an average of a set of 12 rows starting from 1 till 120 for each column. Precisely, for column 1 the average of 1:10 rows, 11:20 rows.... 111:120. similarly for column 2, 3, 4.... 1000. So in the end i should have a matrix with 12 rows and 1000 columns. Thankyou very much in advance.
