byX: Calls FUN on a subset of data in blocks of size 'subset_size'...

In PTXQC: Quality Report Generation for MaxQuant and mzTab Results

Calls FUN on a subset of data in blocks of size 'subset_size' of unique indices.

Description

One subset consists of 'subset_size' unique groups and thus of all rows which in 'data' which have any of these groups. The last subset might have less groups, if the number of unique groups is not dividable by subset_size.

Usage

byX(data, indices, subset_size = 5, FUN, sort_indices = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

data	Data.frame whose subsets to use on FUN
indices	Vector of group assignments, same length as nrow(data)
subset_size	Number of groups to use in one subset
FUN	Function applied to subsets of data
sort_indices	Sort groups (by their sorted character(!) names) before building subsets
...	More arguments to FUN

Details

FUN is applied on each subset.

Value

list of function result (one entry for each subset)

Examples

 byX(data.frame(d=1:10), 1:10, 2, sum)
