Arguments

x	data frame
by	vector of names of columns in x to be grouped by
sum.up	name of column in x containing numeric values to be summed up. If NULL (default) rows within groups are counted instead of summing up values within each group

# Create a data frame with example data
x <- data.frame(
  Group = rep(c("A", "B", "C"), 4),
  Even = rep(c(FALSE, TRUE), 6),
  Value = seq_len(12)
)

# Count the number of rows for each group
countOrSum(x, "Group")
countOrSum(x, c("Group", "Even"))

# Sum up the values in column "Value" for each group
countOrSum(x, "Group", sum.up = "Value")
