Hello R-user!
I am running R 2.7.0 on a Power Book (Tiger). (I am still R and
statistics beginner)
I try to find the most important variables to divide my dataset as
given in a categorical variable.
code:
Test.rf4<-randomForest(Sex~.,na.action=na.roughfix, data=Subset4,
importance=TRUE, proximity=TRUE, ntree=10000, do.trace=1000,
keep.forest=FALSE)
My dataset contains also ordered factors classified as such.
Is randomForest able to deal with it, does it change anything or is
there no difference in using factors or ordered factors?
Many thanks in advance
B.
