Hi,
Is this intended behaviour of cbind?

a
[1,] 2
[2,] 3
[3,] 4
#cbind adds +1 to each element

Hi,
It doesn't have anything to with cbind, but rather with
as.ordered - you converted it to a factor in that step.
In the cbind step, you are actually getting the position of
that ordered factor, rather than anything to do with the values
themselves.
