At the risk of repeating a post I haven't read, the two constructs are
different because 1:3 returns a vector of integers (class "integer") and
c(1, 2, 3) is a bit more conservative about what '1' and the like mean
and returns a vector of class "numeric".
lapply(df1, class)
lapply(df2, class)

Hi,
The following two 'df's should be the same, although their

But they aren't the same.

identical(df1, df2)

Hi,

constructions are different. But the results of paste() are different.
I don't see this is explained in ?paste. Could you help me understand
why it is like this?

X Y
1 1 4
