Let me rephrase;

Given x as

x

[[1]]
  V1 V2 V3
[1,]  1  1  1
[2,]  2  2  2
[3,]  3  3  3

[[2]]
  V1 V2 V3
[1,]  4  4  4
[2,]  5  5  5
[3,]  6  6  6

[[3]]
  V1 V2 V3
[1,]  7  7  7
[2,]  8  8  8
[3,]  9  9  9

I'd like to calculate the moving average (interval = 2) i.e.

( x[[1]] + x[[2]] ) / 2
( x[[2]] + x[[3]] ) / 2
... and so on.

The desired output will return

2.5 2.5 2.5
3.5 3.5 3.5
4.5 4.5 4.5

5.5 5.5 5.5
6.5 6.5 6.5
7.5 7.5 7.5

Hello useRs,

I'd like to perform a moving average on the dataset, xx. I've tried combining 
the functions Reduce and rollmean but it didn't work.

r <- function(n) rollmean(n, 2) # where 2 = averaging interval
output < - Reduce("r", x)
Error in f(init, x[[i]]) : unused argument(s) (x[[i]])

Is there anything wrong with the code in the first place?

where
x

[[1]]
   V1 V2 V3
[1,]  1  1  1
[2,]  2  2  2
[3,]  3  3  3

[[2]]
   V1 V2 V3
[1,]  4  4  4
[2,]  5  5  5
[3,]  6  6  6

[[3]]
   V1 V2 V3
[1,]  7  7  7
[2,]  8  8  8
[3,]  9  9  9

The moving average is to be performed on

1,4,7 = (1+4)/2 , (4+7)/2
2,5,8 = ..
3,6,9 = ..

Thanks

Muhammad
