[R] pairwise.t.test non numeric factors error

[Jim Lemon]

Hi Erica,
The problem may be that you are specifying a grouping factor (mdl) in
which the group sizes are unequal. If one case in group "tot" is
missing, is it possible to identify the corresponding cases in the
other factor levels and delete them?
