Dear R user,
I am trying to convert the contents of a date.frame to a matrix. Since there
are negative values in the date.frame, when I use data.matrix(x,
rownames.force = NA), the resulting matrix is not the same as the original
one. Basically I think R treats the numbers in the date.frame as character
and converts it to corresponding numerics.
Any idea on this issue?
Many Thanks,
Hongyuan
