Thank you PIKAL Petr,

This is used when you have a big data base of a national sample. So, this 
factor is a variable that uses the sample in order to obtain information about 
all the people of the country.  Similar of getting a real approach about what's 
going on in the total population. I don't know how it is called in english (my 
first tonge is spanish).  Perhaps, there's a function in R, but I have not 
idea. 
Hope it helps.
Thanks in advance.
José

Asunto: RE: [R] factor expansion

Hi

I did not see any answer yet but can you explain what you mean by factor 
expansion? Something like expand.grid?
