Re: [R] readr to generate tibble from a character matrix

Hi, Thanks for this solution! Very slick! I see what you mean about the two calls to as_tibble(). I suppose I could do the following, but I doubt it is a gain... mm <- lapply(colnames(m), function(nm, m) type.convert(m[,nm], as.is = TRUE), m=m) names(mm) <- colnames(m) as_tibble(mm) # # A t

Re: [R] readr to generate tibble from a character matrix

Hi Ben, type.convert should do the trick: m %>% as_tibble() %>% lapply(type.convert) %>% as_tibble() I am not too happy about to double 'as_tibble' but it get the job done. HTH Ulrik On Thu, 6 Apr 2017 at 16:41 Ben Tupper wrote: > Hello, > > I have a workflow yields a character matrix

[R] readr to generate tibble from a character matrix

Hello, I have a workflow yields a character matrix that I convert to a tibble. Here is a simple example. library(tibble) library(readr) m <- matrix(c(letters[1:12], 1:4, (11:14 + 0.2)), ncol = 5) colnames(m) <- LETTERS[1:5] x <- as_tibble(m) # # A tibble: 4 × 5 # A B C D
