Hiya, Probably been debated elsewhere....
I note that R's `data` function does not respect default.stringsAsFactors By my lights, it should, especially as it is documented to call read.table, which DOES respect. Oh, but: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/stringsAsFactors-FALSE-tp921891p921893.html Compelling. I have to agree. So, I change my mind. By my lights, `data` should then be documented to NOT respect default.stringsAsFactors. Else? ~Malcolm Cook ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
