I have a data frame as shown below called xy:

> xy

  x.1 x.2 x.3 y.1 y.2 y.3

1   1   5   9   2  10  18

2   2   6  10   4  12  20

3   3   7  11   6  14  22

4   4   8  12   8  16  24

I was wondering what would be an easy way to have the mean and variance calculated and stored as follows:

>       xy                                                                     

        x.1     x.2     x.3     mean.x  var.x   y.1     y.2     y.3     mean.y  var.y

1       1       5       9       5               16      2       10      18      10              64

2       2       6       10      6               16      4       12      20      12              64

3       3       7       11      7               16      6       14      22      14              64

4       4       8       12      8               16      8       16      24      16              64
