Dear helpers, FYI, I am a beginner of R, just have dealt with MATLAB or JAVA.
I want to know how to solve one problem given 4 variables: year_1, year_2, tall_1, tall_2. The tall_1 is measured at year_1 and tall_2 at year_2. The tall has grown up such as uniformly 1 cm/yr. The data is like year_1 year_2 tall_1 tall_2 2007 2010 12 15 1999 2009 6 16 2003 2005 11 13 2002 2009 3 10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . So I need to get the average tall of the plant against year, for all the years of available data. The year_1 and year_2 are recorded so that a plant is alive if the year of a question is equal to or grater than the year_1 and equal to and less than the year_2. For example, 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 12 13 14 15 avg 6 7 8 6 25/3 ...etc. Since the amount of the data is too huge, I need to use appropriate functions and algorithm but I am not good at programming R. I wish you help me out from this hell problem please.
