Try str(mydf1) and you will probably find out that some variables are factors/character. Therefore as.matrix transfers **all** values to character as matrix can not mix data of various type. > > > > mymat <- data.matrix(mydf1) > > > > -- whole matrix is filled with 1,2 and 3. > > > > Is there any other way I can do this. > > > > say row names are city schools > > colnames are student names > > > Hi Adrian, > Have you looked at color2d.matplot in the plotrix package? > > Jim > > ______________________________________________ > 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. ______________________________________________ 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.
