Hello, Semi-new r user here and still learning the ropes. I am creating dummy variables for a dataset on stock prices in r. One dummy variable is called prev1 and is:
prev1 <- ifelse(ret1 >= .5, 1, 0) where ret1 is the previous day's return. The variable "prev1" is created fine and works in my regression model and for running conditional statistics. However, when I call the names() function on the dataset the freshly created variable (prev1) doesn't show up; also, when I export the dataset the prev1 variable doesn't show up in the exported file. Is there a way to make the variable show up on both the call function but more importantly on the exported file? Or am I forced to create dummy variables elsewhere(much tougher)? Thanks, Joe ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
