Hello,


imagine the following data.frame:

ID name
1 *_A
2 *_A
3 *_B
4 *_B

* = can be any pattern

I want to replace every row which ends with _A by 1 and every row which ends
by _B with a 0

You can use grep(patt, x, value=TRUE) to return vlaues that can be used in the prior answers to your earlier question today.

I would have worked it out and tested the strategy, but you continue to fail to produce workable examples.... and then apologize that people are "confused" by them. We are NOT confused... only annoyed ... that you fail to use dput() or code for constructing workable code.

so that the data.frame looks like the following:

ID name
1 1
2 1
3 0
4 0


Which function do I use best to achieve this?

Cheers,
Syrvn
