Thanks for your advice!
I found another method to solve my problem (on page 20 of the manual =) ).
Here's my code
# Set n and m to whatever you want
n = 25
m = 10
# Build a random vector (here with exponential distribution) with lenght of
n*m
x = rexp(n*m,1)
# Set up a factor in order to group x into pieces each of size ten
y = factor( rep(1:n, each = m) )
# tapply will apply mean to each group..
result = tapply(x,y,mean)
