Hi All I am new to R and I am not sure of how this should be done. I have a matrix of 985x100 values and the class is data.frame.
A sample of my dataset looks like this (Since its a huge dataset and it would make the screen look more complex, I am pasting only the first few rows and columns. V2 V3 V4 V5 V6 2 0.009953966 -0.01586103 -0.016227028 0.016774711 -0.021342598 3 -0.230181145 0.203303786 -0.685321843 0.147050709 -0.122269004 4 -0.552905273 -0.034039644 -0.511356309 -0.330524909 -0.239088566 5 -0.089739322 -0.082768643 -0.411209134 -0.301011664 1.560185991 6 -1.986059137 -0.252217616 -0.369044526 -0.585619405 0.545903757 7 -1.635875161 2.741310455 -0.058411313 -1.458825827 0.078480977 8 0.525846706 -1.134643662 -0.067014844 -1.431990219 -0.557057121 9 -0.913511821 0.688374777 0.376412044 -0.861746434 2.065507172 10 -1.538179621 0.814330376 1.639939042 -1.41478931 1.802738289 11 0.817957993 -0.426560507 2.773380242 -0.123291817 1.316883748 When I try to use this command to convert it to numeric, as.numeric(leu_cluster1): I get an error Error: (list) object cannot be coerced to type 'double'. I tried several functions and looked into other forums too, but could not find a solution. i am trying to change it to numeric data.frame and not to a matrix. thanks in advance. :) ______________________________________________ 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.
