Dear developeRs,
I have just discovered a strange feature when assigning some values to
columns of a data frame: The column is matched by partial matching (as
documented), but when assigning a value, a new column with the partial
name is added to the data frame that is identical to the original column
except for the changed value. Is that intentional ? An example:
sw <- swiss[1:5, 1:4]
sw
sw$Fert[1] <- 10
sw
Best, Ulrike
