Hello,

I have been trying to use by to create a means table, but receive the
error " by(xx, list(subjs, cons, vowels), mean)
Error in Summary.data.frame(..., na.rm = na.rm) :
	only defined on a data frame with all numeric or complex
variables" when the data frame consists of three factor columns (subjs,
cons and vowels) and 5 numeric data columns.

The output I'm looking for is a simple mean for each of the numeric
columns by the independent variables subjs, vowel, consonant.

Thanks for you advice,

D
