What Jim is alluding to is that sometimes in the process of reading in data a small typo can mean that what was intended to be a numeric variable is read in as a factor. So he was suggesting that you double check that this has not happened to you.

Which calculation you are talking about? I did not use factors as variable.

Hi Neha,
Well, that's a clue to why you are getting NAs:

log10(0)
[1] -Inf

Another possibility is that the values used in the initial calculation
have been read in as factors.

Hi Jim

The objective function is passed to san_res where we have defined the 4
parameters of gbm and the values are initialized in san_res.

The output variable price has only three values: 0, 1, 2 (like
categorical values), so someone told me try to remove the log10 from the
price.
