Hi,

This can't be hard, but I can't find the solution.  I have a 
380x380 data frame of numbers.  I would like to turn it into 
a single column so I can do e.g. hist and mean on it without 
writing my own function.  There must be a simple function 
for this, but I'm stumped -- reshape, dim, etc. don't seem 
to do it...

Help appreciated!
Thanks!!
Nick
