Hello,

Is there a simple way to get the class type for each column of a
data.frame?  I am in the situation where I would like to get all the
columns of a data.frame that are factors.

I have tried:
apply(df,2,class)
but all the columns come back as class "character".

Just realized it happens because of matrix coercion.
