前言
这个函数的功能比较强大，它首先将数据进行分组（按行），然后对每一组数据进行函数统计，最后把结果组合成一个比较nice的表格返回。根据数据对象不同它有三种用法，分别应用于数据框（data.frame）、公式（formula）和时间序列（ts）：
aggregate(x, by, FUN, ..., simplify = TRUE)
aggregate(formula, data, FUN, ..., subset, na.action = na.omit)
aggregate(x, nfrequency = 1, FUN = sum, ndeltat = 1, ts.eps = getOption("ts.eps"), ...)语法
aggregate(x, ...)
## S3 method for class ‘default‘:
aggregate((x, ...))
## S3 method for class ‘data.frame‘:
aggregate((x, by, FUN, ..., simplify = TRUE))
## S3 method for class ‘formula‘:
aggregate((formula, data, FUN, ...,
subset, na.action = na.omit))
## S3 method for class ‘ts‘:
aggregate((x, nfrequency = 1, FUN = sum, ndeltat = 1,
ts.eps = getOption("ts.eps"), ...))

我们通过 mtcars 数据集的操作对这个函数进行简单了解。mtcars 是不同类型汽车道路测试的数据框类型数据：
> str(mtcars)
‘data.frame‘: 32 obs. of 11 variables:
$ mpg : num 21 21 22.8 21.4 18.7 18.1 14.3 24.4 22.8 19.2 ...
$ cyl : num 6 6 4 6 8 6 8 4 4 6 ...
$ disp: num 160 160 108 258 360 ...
$ hp : num 110 110 93 110 175 105 245 62 95 123 ...
$ drat: num 3.9 3.9 3.85 3.08 3.15 2.76 3.21 3.69 3.92 3.92 ...
$ wt : num 2.62 2.88 2.32 3.21 3.44 ...
$ qsec: num 16.5 17 18.6 19.4 17 ...
$ vs : num 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 ...
$ am : num 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ...
$ gear: num 4 4 4 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 ...
$ carb: num 4 4 1 1 2 1 4 2 2 4 ...先用attach函数把mtcars的列变量名称加入到变量搜索范围内，然后使用aggregate函数按cyl（汽缸数）进行分类计算平均值：
> attach(mtcars)
> aggregate(mtcars, by=list(cyl), FUN=mean)

Example2
## Compute the averages for the variables in ‘state.x77‘, grouped
## according to the region (Northeast, South, North Central, West) that
## each state belongs to.
aggregate(state.x77, list(Region = state.region), mean)
## Compute the averages according to region and the occurrence of more
## than 130 days of frost.
aggregate(state.x77,
list(Region = state.region,
Cold = state.x77[,"Frost"] > 130),
mean)
## (Note that no state in ‘South‘ is THAT cold.)
## example with character variables and NAs
testDF <- data.frame(v1 = c(1,3,5,7,8,3,5,NA,4,5,7,9),
v2 = c(11,33,55,77,88,33,55,NA,44,55,77,99) )
by1 <- c("red", "blue", 1, 2, NA, "big", 1, 2, "red", 1, NA, 12)
by2 <- c("wet", "dry", 99, 95, NA, "damp", 95, 99, "red", 99, NA, NA)
aggregate(x = testDF, by = list(by1, by2), FUN = "mean")
# and if you want to treat NAs as a group
fby1 <- factor(by1, exclude = "")
fby2 <- factor(by2, exclude = "")
aggregate(x = testDF, by = list(fby1, fby2), FUN = "mean")
## Formulas, one ~ one, one ~ many, many ~ one, and many ~ many:
aggregate(weight ~ feed, data = chickwts, mean)
aggregate(breaks ~ wool + tension, data = warpbreaks, mean)
aggregate(cbind(Ozone, Temp) ~ Month, data = airquality, mean)
aggregate(cbind(ncases, ncontrols) ~ alcgp + tobgp, data = esoph, sum)
## Dot notation:
aggregate(. ~ Species, data = iris, mean)
aggregate(len ~ ., data = ToothGrowth, mean)
## Often followed by xtabs():
ag <- aggregate(len ~ ., data = ToothGrowth, mean)
xtabs(len ~ ., data = ag)
## Compute the average annual approval ratings for American presidents.
aggregate(presidents, nfrequency = 1, FUN = mean)
## Give the summer less weight.
aggregate(presidents, nfrequency = 1,
FUN = weighted.mean, w = c(1, 1, 0.5, 1))Example3
