Hello,
I figure this is quite a simple problem really, but since I'm quite
new to R I need to ask:
If I have a data frame:
str(test) :
$ classcol: Factor w/ 3 levels 1,2,3
How do I convert the entries in this column to numbers. I.e., I want
to be abl to do simple calculations like
2 problems :
test seems to be a data frame or list with one variable. So you have
to specify :
as.numeric(test$classcol)
But this will make the internal factor levels the real values, not the
numbers you specified. What you need, is
as.numeric(as.character(test$classcol))
Cheers
