Tabulation for Vectors

Description:

     `tabulate' takes the integer valued vector `bin' and counts the
     number of times each integer occurs in it.  `tabulate' is used as
     the basis of the `table' function.

Usage:

     tabulate(bin, nbins = max(1, bin))

Arguments:

     bin: a vector of integers, or a factor.

   nbins: the number of bins to be used.

Details:

     If `bin' is a factor, its internal integer representation is
     tabulated. If the elements of `bin' are not integers, they are
     rounded to the nearest integer.  Elements outside the range
     `1,..., nbin' are (silently) ignored in the tabulation.

See Also:

     `factor', `table'.

Examples:

     tabulate(c(2,3,5))
     tabulate(c(2,3,3,5), nb = 10)
     tabulate(c(-2,0,2,3,3,5), nb = 3)
     tabulate(factor(letters[1:10]))
