Hey David, thanks for your fast reply, i really appreciate that you answer so many posts.
Unfortunately it´s not that easy. Try to operate with the output: e.g file<-read.csv2(tmp,sep=";",skip="5") a<-(relevant<-file[,2][1]) a*5 # or as.numeric(relevant<-file[,2][1]) a is saved in the workspace as a factor and the values i actually need are saved as the labels. (therefore my subject) Thank You! -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Data-read-as-labels-tp4629901p4629951.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ 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.
