Dear Team, I need help with the below code in R:
gender_rec<- c('Dr','Father','Mr'=1, 'Miss','MS','Mrs'=2, 3) reasons$salutation<- gender_rec[reasons$salutation]. This code gives me the correct output but it overwrites the reason$salutation variable. I need to create a new variable gender to capture gender details and leave salutation as it is. i tried the below syntax but it is converting all to 1. reasons$gender<- ifelse(reasons$salutation== "Mr" & reasons$salutation== "Father","Male", ifelse(reasons$salutation=="Mrs" & reasons$salutation== "Miss","Female",1)) Please suggest.
