The "==" has no place in the second and third arguments to ifelse . It should probably be: y <- ifelse (x==1, "NO", "YES") (And do note that "==" is not an assignment operator in any context.) -- David Winsemius Alameda, CA, USA ______________________________________________ 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.
