Hello,
I will appreciate any suggestion for this simple problem. I have a matrix of characters "A", "P", "M". I want to convert those characters to integers 0,1, 1 respectively. I am using the following R statements: exprs.new<-gsub("P",1,exprs) exprs.new1 <- gsub("A",0,exprs.new) exprs.new2 <- gsub("M",1,exprs.new1) The replaced integers are stored as characters and I cannot find a way to convert the matrix to an integer matrix.
