With the example I meant that the factors in the vector V1 and V2 would be treated like individual binary/dummy variables. Back to my real question; Is there no other way to do this in R??? 2011/6/25 David Winsemius <dwinsem...@comcast.net>: > > On Jun 25, 2011, at 2:13 PM, Håvard Wahl Kongsgård wrote: > >> Hi, sorry my question was not really clear >> >> |Are you very early in efforts at learning R? >> No, have been a long term user of R, but only use R for the statistical >> stuff. >> >> The heart of the issue is that I have list of keywords that I want to >> analyse with a machine learning algorithm (20 000 keywords with a >> response variables).
