Bill (and David),
Thank you very much for taking the time to respond to my query.
You were right, I was creating and calling the function exactly as you had
predicted. I revised the structure based on your suggestion. It runs but
the output is an array of the flags that are not attached to the data frame,
not a new column in the data frame as was my intention.
So, the new configuration I tried was like this (where DataFrame is not a
real data frame but just the word "DataFrame"):
WQFlags <- function(DataFrame) {DataFrame$CalciumFlag <- with(DataFrame,
ifelse(variable == "CaD_ICP", (dataqualifier <- c("Y", 'Q', "", "A")
[findInterval(DataFrame$value, c(-Inf, 0.027, 0.1, 100, Inf))]),""))
}
I called it using:
WaterQualityData <- WQFlags(WaterQualityData)
Again, the output is simply an array of the flags, unattached to a data
frame. Can you suggest a way to modify this to make it work as desired, or,
in the worst case, can I attach the resulting array of flag values?
Thank you again!
