Hi Jim,

Here is a suggestion using aggregate():

res <- with(df, aggregate(Angle, list(Trial, Treatment), mean, na.rm =
TRUE))
colnames(res) <- c('Trial','Treatment', 'Average_Angle')
res
# Trial Treatment Average_Angle
# 1     1         C       52.7455
# 2     2         C       81.7599
# 3     3         C       76.3234
# 4     1         U       62.5118
# 5     2         U       81.5520

HTH,
Jorge
