For that kind of operation (unusual as it is) work with numeric matrices. When you are finished, if you still want a data frame, make it then, not before.
If your data starts off as data frame to begin with, turn it into a matrix first. E.g. myMatrix <- data.frame(myData) myMatrix2 <- myMatrix + 2 myData2 <- data.frame(myMatrix2) Bill Venables. -----Original Message----- From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On Behalf Of Ramya Sent: Friday, 20 May 2011 1:54 PM To: r-help@r-project.org Subject: [R] Adding a numeric to all values in the dataframe Hi there I just want to add 2 to all the values in dataframe.
