Dear community, I uploaded an excel with read.xls. My xls file actually have a column which is an id, ("plot" is the id) :
plot height area 34 7.6 5.4 85 3.2 4.1 89 5.4 8.4 121 6.7 6.2 ... 1325 2.1 1.5 However R uses another id, this way: r id plot height area 1 34 7.6 5.4 2 85 3.2 4.1 3 89 5.4 8.4 4 121 6.7 6.2 ... 314 1325 2.1 1.5 I'd like that R used "plot" id because I delete some rows while studying regression, and R seems to be using the first id 1,2,3,4,...,314. Sometimes it's a mess to understand what R means in the plots when, for instance, states that data 200 is influential Thanks in advance, u...@host.com -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/delete-excel-id-automatically-generated-tp3492147p3492147.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
