Hello all, I hope i chose the right list as my question is a beginner-question.
I have a data set with 3 colums "London", "Rome" and "Vienna" - the location is presented through a 1 like this: London Rome Vienna q1 0 0 1 4 0 1 0 2 1 0 0 3 .... .... .... I just want to calculate the means of a variable q1. I tried following script: # calculate the mean of all locations results <- subset(results, subset== 1 ) mean(results$q1) # calculate the mean of London results <- subset(results, subset== 1 , select=c(London)) mean(results$q1) # calculate the mean of Rome results <- subset(results, subset== 1 , select=c(Rome)) mean(results$q1) # calcualate the mean of Vienna results <- subset(results, subset== 1 , select=c(Vienna)) mean(results$q1) As all results are 1.68 and there is defenitely a difference in the three locations I wonder whats going on. I get confused as the Rcmdr asks me to overwrite things and there is no "just filter" option. Any help would be apprechiated. Thank you in advance.
