Hi all, I have a data set which treat missing value as NA and now I need to replace all these NA's by using number in the same row but different column.
Here is the part of my data: V1 V2 V3 V4 V5 V6 V7 0 0 0 1.2 0 0 0.259 0 0 12.8 0 23.7 0 8.495 6 0 81.7 0.2 0 20 19.937 0 1.5 60.9 0 0 15.5 13.900 1 13 56.8 17.5 32.8 6.4 27.654 4 3 66.4 2 0.3 NA 17.145 I want to replace (V6, 6) with (V7, 6). I have about 1000 NA's in V6 which I want to replace with the same row in V7. The other values in V6, I want to keep remain the same. How to achieve this? Assuming my data is called "Targetstation", I have tried this: Targetstation <- within(Targetstation, v6 <- replace(v6, is.na(v6), v7[is.na (v6)])) But R gives me this: Warning messages: 1: In is.na(v6) : is.na() applied to non-(list or vector) of type 'NULL' 2: In is.na(v6) : is.na() applied to non-(list or vector) of type 'NULL' How to solve this? Thank you in advance. Regards, Dila.
