Hello,

There are two ways,

1.
?sum  # see argument na.rm
sum(whatever, na.rm = TRUE)

2.
?table  # produces the 2x2 contingency table, if there are only 2 values

Also, you should provide us with a data example, especially since your code clearly doesn't work.
Use ?dput like this

dput( head(MyData, 20) )  # Then paste the output of this in a post.


Hope this helps,

Dear everyone

I am a bit of a computer imbecile and are having problems with R.
I am using R in my research project to do chi-square tests on data imported
from excel .
However I have som missing data in one of my variables (columns) and I need
R to "exclude" these and make chi-square test on the data that I have.

I use a formula to make 2x2 tables which is:
data <- matrix(c(sum(!Variable[Group....==1]), sum(Variable[DAAC....==1]),
sum(!Variable[Group....==0]), sum(Variable[DAAC....==0])),2,2)

How can I get R to ignore Na's in this formula?

Many Regards
