When I run this script on 9 variables, it works without problems.

However, when I run the script on 9 different variables, it does not work:
Z <-
data [,c ("d_s1_m ","d_s2_m ","d_s3_m","d_s4_m","d_s5_m","d_s6_m","d_s7_m","d_s8m","d_s9m"
)]

Error in `[.data.frame`(data, , c("d_s1_m", "d_s2_m", "d_s3_m", "d_s4_m",
:
 undefined columns selected

You have probably misspelled one or more the column names. For instance I suspect that one or both of these might be lacking a second "_" : "d_s8m","d_s9m"

If you feel thsi is wrong then you at the very least need to offer str(data)

BTW, data is the name of a perfectly good function, so naming your dataframe "data" is likely to create confusion.

The first 9 variables are between 0 and 3, there are no missing values in
the dataset.

The second 9 variables are between -3 and 3, there are no missing values in
the dataset.

I am pretty new to R and have no idea what could cause this error.

Thank you
