[R] 2 time dependend states and probability transition matrix

[Spencer Graves]

I don't know if I understand what you want, but I wonder if the 
following might help: 

 > Ptrans <- data.frame(Jan=LETTERS[rep(1:2, 5)],
+ June=LETTERS[rep(1:2, each=5)])
 > (table(Ptrans$Jan, Ptrans$June)/dim(Ptrans)[1])
  
      A    B 
  A 0.3 0.2
  B 0.2 0.3

hope this helps.  spencer graves
