Dear R-users..
I hope the following scenario is more explanatory of my question..
Continuous variables: AGE, WEIGHT, HEIGHT
Categorical variables: Group, Sex, Race
I would like to find a correlation between WEIGHT and AGE, grouped by
"Group","Sex", and "Race".
Is the following formula correct?
tapply(dat$WEIGHT,
by=list(dat$AGE,as.factor(dat$Group),as.factor(dat$EX),as.factor(dat$RACE)),cor)
Thanks,
Santosh
