Dear group,

Df :
df <-
structure(list(a = 1:3, b = 4:6, c = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L), class =
"factor", .Label = "w")), .Names = c("a",
"b", "c"), row.names = c(NA, -3L), class = "data.frame")
I want to multiply first and second by -1.
x$a<-x$a*-1
x$b<-x$b*-1
This returns what I want, but there must be an one line command to
do it,
right?

1 -1 -4 w
2 -2 -5 w
3 -3 -6 w
