Re: [R] mean computation for external data

Hi Christabel, Take a look at the function basicStats in the fBasics package. Here is an example: library(fBasics) set.seed(123) x=rnorm(20,24,2) basicStats(x) #x #nobs 20.00 #NAs 0.00 #Minimum 20.066766 #Maximum 27.573826 #1. Quartile 23.012892 #3. Quartile 2

[R] mean computation for external data

I have an external data (.txt) for annual peak flood. The first column is the year, second column is the observation date, and the last is the observed discharge. My task is to calculate the mean, skewness and kurtosis of the said data. I was advised to use read.table() to read the entire data.
