Hi everybody, I wanted to name a column vector (a variable). This is what I did : try<-matrix(1:4,nrow=4,ncol=1)
("try" is a bad name for an object because it is a useful function name.)
attr(try,"dimnames")<-list(NULL,"true value") Is it OK ?
Single column matrices get automatically converted to vectors unless you use drop=FALSE. Furthermore naming vectors with strings that contain spaces is possible but unwise , because you will forever be needing to stick quotes around what would otherwise not need the quotes
