Hi, is there a function or an easy way to convert a variable with continuous values into a categorial variable (with x levels)?
here is what I mean: I want to transform x: x <- c(3.2, 1.5, 6.8, 6.9, 8.5, 9.6, 1.1, 0.6) into a 'categorial'-variable with four levels so that I get: [1] 2 2 3 3 4 4 1 1 so each element is converted into its rank- value / categorial-value (in this example four levels are created). thanks for any suggestions! ______________________________________________ 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.
