Could you give a small reproducible example please? It is not clear to me what your looping structure is doing, or what your goal here is.
There may be a much simpler method than introducing subscripts. --Erik Wade Wall wrote:
Hi all, I have a dataframe (df1) that I am trying to select values from to a second dataframe that at the current time is only for the selected items from df1 (df2). The values that I am trying to save from df1 are factors with alphanumeric names df1 looks like this: 'data.frame': 3014 obs. of 13 variables: $ Num : int 1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 4 ... $ Tag_Num : int 1195 1195 1195 1162 1162 1162 1106 1106 1106 1173 ... $ Site : Factor w/ 25 levels "PYBR002A","PYBR003B",..: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ... $ Site_IndNum : Factor w/ 1044 levels "PYBR002A_001",..: 1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 4 ... .... ... $ Area : num 463.3 29.5 101.8 152.9 34.6 ... However, whenever I try to assign values, like this df2[j,1]<-df2$Site[i] the values are changed from alphanumeric (e.g. PYBR003A) to numerals (e.g. 1). Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can assign the actual values from df1 to df2?
