could someone explain what is happening below ? I was trying to solve
a related question on the list and then , as I was solving it,
I was getting strange answers and then I noticed below. It's obviously

m <- data.frame(class = c("birds", "planes"), feather = c(1,3), jet =
c(2,4))
d1 <- data.frame(jet = c(10), feather = c(20))
print(m)
m[,-1]*2 # THIS IS FINE
m[,"jet"]*2 # THIS IS FINE
print(d1["jet"]) # THIS IS FINE
m[,"jet"]*d1["jet"] # THIS IS ODD
