Dear list,
 
 I have following data, where I want to check if any value in each 
 column is out of range. For example, column "f1" can only take values
 1-5, so if any values less than 1 or > 5 will be 
 defined as missing value (i.e. NA), column "f4" can only take values
 of 1-3 and any values that are outside this interval will be 
 considered as missing values. The below data is a subset of a big survey
 sample and I want to create an automatic procedure to check if all particpants
 gave a reasonable answer. How can I do this in R and also replace the empty 
 values with NA?
