[R] Calculations with aggregate data: confidence intervals

[arun]

Hi Luigi,
You could also use:
library(Rmisc)
 group.CI(copy~stimulation,my.data)[,-3]

Hi Luigi,

Thanks for sending the data in reproducible format.   Perhaps something
like this?

aggregate(my.data[,3], list(my.data[,2]), FUN = function(x) t.test(x)$
conf.int[1:2])

#Group.1           x.1           x.2
