Hello,

In the particular case you have, to change to NA based on condition, use `is.na<-`.

Here is some test data, 3 times the same df.


set.seed(2021)
df3 <- df2 <- df1 <- data.frame(
  x = c(0, 0, 1, 2, 3),
  y = c(1, 2, 3, 0, 0),
  z = rbinom(5, 1, prob = c(0.25, 0.75)),
  a = letters[1:5]
)


# change all columns
is.na(df1) <- df1 == 0
df1

# only one column
is.na(df2[, 2]) <- df2[, 2] == 0
df2

# change several columns given by an index
is.na(df3[c(1, 3)]) <- df3[c(1, 3)] == 0
df3


Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas

Hello,
it is possible to select the columns of a dataframe in sequence with:
```
for(i in 1:ncol(df)) {
   df[ , i]
}
# or
for(i in 1:ncol(df)) {
   df[ i]
}
```
And change all values with, for instance:
```
for(i in 1:ncol(df)) {
   df[ , i] <- df[ , i] + 10
}
```
Is it possible to apply a condition? What would be the syntax?
For instance, to change all 0s in a column to NA would `df[i][df[i ==
0] = NA` be right?
Thank you
