I have a related question...I have a data frame similar with 74 rows that I created with "header=TRUE", but when I try to coerce one of the data frame columns into a vector, it shows up as having length 1, even though when I print it, it shows 74 elements:
> VAL <- c(DailyDiary[1]) > VAL > [1] 3 3 3 2 3 3 4 4 3 3 2 1 1 4 3 3 2 3 3 2 2 3 3 3 1 2 2 [28] 1 1 3 3 3 2 4 3 2 3 4 3 3 3 3 4 3 2 3 2 3 1 2 1 2 3 1 [55] 0 3 2 4 3 1 2 3 1 1 1 4 3 2 1 2 3 3 3 2 >length(VAL) [1] 1 On the other hand, I can easily coerce the row names to a vector of length 74 > partf <- row.names(DailyDiary) > length(partf) [1] 74 What I would like to do is make VAL into a vector with length 74 instead of length 1 so I can sort it using use "partf" as factors. I tried "as.vector", but it doesn't let you specify the length. Any ideas? Thanks, and sorry if I'm being unclear or stupid, I'm a newbie :) Logan -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Length-of-data-frame-column-tp864585p3903892.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ 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.
