[BioC] sum the values with same ID

[guest [guest]]

Dear R user,

I have a matrix like:

ID  group1  group2  group3
s1  0       2       3
s2  1       0       4
s1  3       4       1
s4  2       2       0

I would like to sum the values with same ID to have the matrix as below:
ID  group1  group2  group3
s1  3       6       4
s2  1       0       4
s4  2       2       0

I checked aggregate() may help to complete this job, but unfortunately I have the error message when I do this.

> all.data <- read.csv("test.csv")
> aggregate(group1 ~ ID, data=all.data, FUN=sum)
Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : object 'ID' not found

Please help me to generate the sum for the matrix. It's been appreciated for any help.

Thanks a lot
