4 5 6 7
so when I want analysis the second column
anadata<-newdata$V2

but my question I can not use some certain variable to indice the column?
e.g
cmn=2
anadata<-newdata$Vcmn

Either:

anadata<-newdata[[ paste("V", cmn, sep="") ]]

Or:

anadata<-newdata[[cmn]]



how can I finish this command ?can anyone help me ? thank yo .

Your should go back and study your introductory manual now. If this is not near the begininning of that manual, you hsoulswitch manuals.

You should also type:

?"$"

And read that page carefully and try all of the examples. It will probably take more than one reading to master its contents, but it is a core part of learning R.
