Hi R users I am wondering how I can avoid automatic coercion of my numeric vector elements to character
Stop giving character arguments .
init <- c(age='N', R=as.numeric(0.5), S=as.numeric(0.8))
If you want a multi-mode object, use a list. > init <- list(age='N', R=as.numeric(0.5), S=as.numeric(0.8)) > init $age [1] "N" $R [1] 0.5 $S [1] 0.8 Vectors can only contain elements of a single mode. -- David.
I have used as.numeric() but it does not seem to work Thank you Lorenzo [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
