Dear Jim,
Thanks for your suggestion.
I have a follow-up question for fellow R Users that have followed this thread:
*I used to create two lists by some very flexible criteria to compare
from "iData" and pass the two lists to *ANOTHER FUNCTION* that further
decompose the two lists and do some case by case analysis:
comp.lst[[1]] <- subset(iData,(Session==1 & TrialList==2 & BadTrial==0
& Correct==1 & Critical.BT>0))
comp.lst[[2]] <- subset(iData,(Session==2 & TrialList==2 & BadTrial==0
& Correct==1 & Critical.BT>0))
*The function will then do some subject by subject processing:
tmplist <- comp.lst[[1]]
subject <- unique(tmplist$Subject)
Psubjmatrix <- NULL
for(j in 1:length(subj)) { ##divide the list and process per subject in the list
subjtriallist <- subset(tmplist,(Subject==subj[j])) ##divide
the list and process per subject in the list
print(paste("Start working on Subject ",subj[j],sep=""),quote=FALSE)
##The sub-divided list is passed to another function to
extract data from corresponding object
Ptrialmatrix <- SeekObject(subjtriallist,seconds,samplesize,sdmax);
##add rowmean to subject pupil matrix
Psubjmatrix <- cbind(Psubjmatrix, rowMeans(Ptrialmatrix,
na.rm=TRUE, dims=1))
}
*But now, I have a pre-processed the objects and cooked up a
1500x20000 matrix, and there is no need to get these objects one by
one for extraction, I may just do the following:
Ptrialmatrix <- PMasterMatrix[subjindex,,drop=FALSE]
*However, on passing the index to the function, I cannot further
sub-divide the list index by Subject.
I have been thinking of passing the criteria to within the function.
But... what smarter thing I can do to make it works?
