I am looking into change the numeric order in the level of the factor

fx
[1] A B C
Levels: A B C
factor(x)
[1] A B C
Levels: A B C
as.numeric(fx)
[1] 1 2 3
I want to change the order of the numeric into 3 corresponds to “A” level, 2
corresponds to “B” level and 1 corresponds to “C” level
So when I type in
As.numeric(fx) I would like to get
3 2 1
Your help is greatly appreciated
fx <- factor(x, levels=c("C","B","A"))
