[R] Coarsening the Resolution of a Dataset

[Steve Murray]

Hi - thanks for the advice - I am however applying this to the whole data frame. And the code that I'm using is just to read in the data (using read.table) and then the code that you supplied. I could send you the actual dataset if you don't mind a file ~50MB?!

Thanks again,

Steve
