Hello, Derek,
first of all, be very aware of what David Winsemius said; you are about to
enter the area of "unprincipled data-mining" (as he called it) with its
trap -- one of many -- of multiple testing. So, *if* you know what the
consequences and possible remedies are, a purely R-syntactic "

Hi Derek,
You can accomplish your loop jobs by following means:
(a) use for loop
(b) use while loop
(c) use lapply, tapply, or sapply. (i feel "lapply is the elegant

However I still have difficulty. I also have some categorical variables to
