I've been looking but I can't find a function to sum difference. I have this code:
rates$thisone <- c(diff(rates$Int), NA) rates$nextone <- c(diff(rates$Int, lag=2), NA, NA) rates$lastone <- (rates$thisone + rates$nextone) It is looking down one long column of numbers. It sums the difference between the first two and then between the first and third and so on. Can it be made to automatically sum the difference between the first and subsequent to the end of a list? ______________________________________________ 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.
