Hello,
You should provide us with a data example.
In the following, the two solutions are completely different but both of
them do what you want. Note that the second creates a factor variable,
whose levels are coded as integers. See R-intro.pdf in your doc
directory, chapter 4 Ordered and unordered factors.
x <- sample(c("Male", "Female"), 10, replace = TRUE)
y1 <- ifelse(x == "Male", 1L, 2L)
y2 <- factor(x, levels = c("Male", "Female"))
Hope this helps,
Rui Barradas
