Oct 6, 2010 at 15:59 comment added T-Burns Thanks! Especially for noting the last value as zero assumption, I hadn't considered that. I definitely care about that last window!!
Sep 25, 2010 at 9:24 comment added user88 @ucfagls Yet this is easy to change and as you said this assumption was made by the OP. On the other hand, I would be even more restrictive and removed the last average.

Sep 25, 2010 at 8:59 comment added Gavin Simpson @mbq; that is making a strong assumption that the observation is 0. I had been mulling this point and T-Burns is making the same assumption (an unobserved 0). I would prefer perhaps to pad with NA and pass in the na.rm = TRUE argument to mean. The answer won't be the same as what the OP requested, but it seems more useful. I'll edit my answer to include this.
Sep 25, 2010 at 8:36 comment added user88 You may add a 0 at the end of x (x<-c(x,0)) to get the last element of answer.
Sep 24, 2010 at 22:11 comment added Tal Galili BTW, I once wrote about a usage of this function to implement the notion of "quantile loess" : r-statistics.com/2010/04/…
