Greetings,
I am recoding a dummy variable (coded 1,0) so that 0 = 2. I am using
the line
sciach$dummyba[sciach$ba==0] <- 2
I notice that it creates a new column dummyba, with 0 coded as 2 but
with 1's now coded as NA. Is there a simple way around this in the line
I am using, or do I need to have an additional line
sciach$dummyba[sciach$ba==1] <- 1
Thanks in advance.
David
Try sciach$dummyba <- ifelse(sciach$ba==0,2,1)
