As the help page says
If some of the values are not vectors of the appropriate length,
you deserve whatever you get!
So you can use
mtcars1 <- mtcars
mtcars1[c("t1", "t2")] <- cbind(rep(3,32), rep(4, 32))
Ok..I got it, it is an usual pain with R: vectors with length 1 are
recycled and data.frames with nrows=1 and arrays with dim[1]=1 are not.
Will have to use
mtcars[c("t1","t2")]<-with(mtcars, cbind(t1=..., t2=...))
or rewrite transform.data.frame myself.
Thanks a lot,
Vitalie.
