if "data" was your data.frame, data[4:length(data)] was also a data.frame.

but, c(data[4:length(data)] ) coerces it to a list.

therefore coppie is a list.

coppie[1] is also a list of length 1...

compare that to: coppie[[1]]

Ciao Paolo,

How about you show some row of your data?
How many columns have your data.frame? One?
By the way "data" is not a so good name for your data frame.

We will be very happy to help you

Kindly,

 Hi all
 I have this problem:
 In my database .dta, called "data" I have five rows
 data<-read.dta("C:\\2_CO_mmobile_ALL_Rid.dta")
 # From this database  I wuold like to create another
 coppie<-c(data[4:length(data)])
 but I find this

 # Length of  original data
 length(data[,4])
 5                       RIGHT!!
 # Length of new data
 length(coppie[1])
 1                      WHY??
 Thank you all for your help
 Paolo Grillo
