split(d.1, d.1$v1)
you might get a hint. Then make this change.
cbind(d.1, v4=c(lapply(split(d.1, d.1$v1), function(x) cumsum(x$v3)), recursive=T))
There is no variable named "y" in your data frame, so "x$y" is the wrong thing to use in the function definition.
You didn't say which variable you wanted the cumsum of, but v3 seemed to make sense...

I need to do a simple cumulative sum by group and add the result to the data. I found an earlier thread in the help files with a few suggestions.
Somewhat, one of the suggestions does not work with "my data", and I don't really understand why ?
The error am getting using the "my data" below is...
Error in data.frame(..., check.names = FALSE) : arguments imply differing number of rows: 10, 0
I'd truly appreciate your input on this matter.
Am still a beginner on R, but am determined to use it for the rest of my life...
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
Jose
