This most likely happens because OP posted the message via Nabble [http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Calculating-mean-median-minimum-and-maximum-td4700862.html] via "New Topic", which in turn post the message to r-help after asking the user to confirm: "Mailing List Subscription Reminder This forum is an archive/gateway which will forward your post to the r-help@r-project.org mailing list. The mailing list may require your subscription before accepting your post. Please note that being registered with Nabble does NOT automatically subscribe you to this mailing list. If you haven't subscribed yet, please do it now. If you aren't sure or don't remember, just subscribe again because there is no harm." Since OP is not a registered user on the r-help mailing list, his/her post is help by r-help for moderation. However, mtrang probably saw it on Nabble and replied there and since mtrang is also a registered user on the r-help, his/her messages reach us here on r-help, before OP's messages help for moderation are approved. I'd say, this is quite annoying "feature" to everyone but Nabble users, particularly since the Nabble message does not include the previous messages (unlike email). /Henrik > > John Kane > Kingston ON Canada > > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: mtr...@buffalo.edu >> Sent: Fri, 19 Dec 2014 08:08:29 -0800 (PST) >> To: r-help@r-project.org >> Subject: Re: [R] Calculating mean, median, minimum, and maximum >> >> You can use the apply function which "applies" a function of your choice, >> and >> MARGIN = 2 means you want to do it columnwise: >> >>> apply(X = df, MARGIN=2, FUN = mean, na.rm = TRUE) >> Latitude Longitude January February March April May >> June >> 26.9380 -109.8125 159.8454 156.4489 153.6911 150.1719 148.0885 >> 149.2365 >>> apply(X = df, MARGIN=2, FUN = min, na.rm = TRUE) >> Latitude Longitude January February March April May >> June >> 26.938 -110.688 121.204 118.713 117.293 114.398 112.357 >> 113.910 >>> apply(X = df, MARGIN=2, FUN = max, na.rm = TRUE) >> Latitude Longitude January February March April May >> June >> 26.938 -108.938 252.890 248.991 244.870 241.194 239.615 >> 239.888 >>> apply(X = df, MARGIN=2, FUN = median, na.rm = TRUE) >> Latitude Longitude January February March April May >> June >> 26.9380 -109.8120 134.5990 130.7960 127.4495 123.2100 120.8375 >> 122.3835 >> >> >> >> -- >> View this message in context: >> http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Calculating-mean-median-minimum-and-maximum-tp4700862p4700946.html >> Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. >> >> ______________________________________________ >> R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see >> 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. > > ____________________________________________________________ > FREE ONLINE PHOTOSHARING - Share your photos online with your friends and > family! > Visit http://www.inbox.com/photosharing to find out more! > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see > 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. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see 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.
