Stratified median calculation
This function computes the median of values in y separately within values of x. It is used by maNormMed for median location normalization.
maMed(x, y, subset=TRUE)
x |
Variables used to stratify the data. |
y |
A numeric vector. |
subset |
A "logical" or "numeric" vector indicating the subset of points used to compute the median. |
A numeric vector of median values.
