Hi, I have a problem that appears to be quite common - warnings that 'x' must be numeric. How can I get rid of that problem?
specifically, I am trying to run an mrpp with a species-site data set plus a second file containing factors. Both files are saved as .csv and comma separated. I have tried to remove the column titles in a number of ways to not cause the problem to begin with, but r wasn't really impressed. what I've done so far is: #reading my species-site data set mzbtaxa<-read.csv("MZBTaxa.csv", header=TRUE, dec=",", sep=";") mzbtaxa names(mzbtaxa) #reading my factors file mzbsites<-read.csv("MZBSites.csv", header=TRUE, dec=",", sep=";") mzbsites names(mzbsites) #loading package library(vegan) ##trying to run mrpp mzbtaxa.mrpp <- mrpp(mzbtaxa, mzbsites$Site, distance = "bray") ##which is where I get my warning 'x' must be numeric. Any ideas how to deal with that?
