Hi everyone,
Imagine that I have a data frame with four columns:
data<-
a b c d
0 1 1 0
1 1 1 1
1 0 0 1
I want to replace the zeros in columns a:b for NA only for the rows in
which column d are zero. So
a b c d
NA 1 1 0
1 1 1 1
1 0 0 1
I am trying this:
data[,1:3][data[4] == 0] <- NA
But get this error:
Error in `[<-.data.frame`(`*tmp*`, Data[4] == 0, value = NA) :
only logical matrix subscripts are allowed in replacement
Does anyone knows the reason of this error or is there an alternative
to replace the values in one column based on the values of another?
Thanks,
Camilo
