Very simple as explained in the help files: > X <- 1:5 > X [1] 1 2 3 4 5
> add.value.labels(X,letters[1:5]) [1] 1 2 3 4 5 attr(,"value.labels") a b c d e 1 2 3 4 5 > X [1] 1 2 3 4 5 X didn't change. > X <- add.value.labels(X,letters[1:5]) > X [1] 1 2 3 4 5 attr(,"value.labels") a b c d e 1 2 3 4 5 > X changed. Mind you, those value labels are only read by functions that use it. functions like names(), colnames(), rownames() and the likes won't use those labels. If you really want to use a kind of labels that works in almost every situation, just use factors.
