Hello all, I'm trying to modify a single column of a data frame to remove randomly half of the values. I want to do it within a function, but can not assign the modified column back into the data frame. It was easy and successful without a function, so I suspect the problem is the call of the single column within the function.
removedata<-function(datafull,var.removed) { attach(datafull) NArandom<-rnorm(n=length(var.removed), mean=0, sd=1) for (i in 1:length(var.removed)) if(NArandom[i]>0) var.removed[i]<-"NA" datamiss<<-datafull detach(datafull) } -- Yuval Sapir, PhDResearcherInstitute of Evolution, Haifa UniversityHaifa, Israel 3190â [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
