[R] Break into Parts

[Liaw, Andy]

You didn't say _how_ you want the vector to be broken up,
so you get two different answers from Uwe and Gabor.  Uwe's
answer group every six elements into one group, in the order
they appear in the vector (which, BTW, can be simplified to
just sd(matrix(x, ncol=12)).  Gabor's answer put the smallest
six into one group, the next smallest six into the second
group and so on.  You'll have to decide which is the one 
you want.
