Hi
I have a dataset that looks like this (dput'd below):
> head(x, 20)
time status
1 2009-07-02 10:32:37 1
2 2009-07-02 10:32:43 0
3 2009-07-02 10:32:43 1
4 2009-07-02 10:32:44 0
5 2009-07-02 10:32:44 1
6 2009-07-02 10:32:48 0
7 2009-07-02 10:32:48 1
8 2009-07-02 10:32:54 0
9 2009-07-02 10:33:04 1
10 2009-07-02 10:33:04 0
11 2009-07-02 10:33:05 1
12 2009-07-02 10:33:07 0
13 2009-07-02 10:33:13 1
14 2009-07-02 10:33:17 0
15 2009-07-02 10:33:40 1
16 2009-07-02 10:33:48 0
17 2009-07-02 10:33:50 1
18 2009-07-02 10:33:51 0
19 2009-07-02 10:33:52 1
20 2009-07-02 10:33:52 0
I would like to be able to calculate the total time spent in state 0, in
other words
the diff of the times of x where x$status changes from 0 to 1. I've been
struggling
with tapply() to do this, but without huge success....anyone know an
elegant way
to do this?
Cheers
