Hi all, please, i'm trying to understand how using "Gsub" for some search and replace of text, makes my data frame lost it's format.
This is my code: <code> DataGoogle1 <- read.csv(file = "DataGoogle2.csv", header = T, stringsAsFactors = F) head(DataGoogle1) </code> Result 1: Campaña Visitas Compras 1 facebook-Ads1 524 2 2 faceBOOK-Ads1 487 24 3 fcebook-ads12 258 4 4 Email1 8 7 5 mail1 224 2 6 referral1 147 7 Then i apply the GSUB function like this: <code> DataGoogle2 <- as.data.frame(gsub("facebook-Ads1", "FBAds", DataGoogle1$Campaña)) </code> And the result is: DataGoogle2 gsub..facebook.Ads1....FBAds...DataGoogle1.Campaña. 1 FBAds 2 faceBOOK-Ads1 3 fcebook-ads12 4 Email1 5 mail1 6 referral1 ... The Search and Replace works, but my data.frame does not. Even if i use: "as.data.frame" before of the "gsub" function. Please, tell me what can i do... Cheers!
