I find this odd because it doesn't appear to happen in larger datasets. I have the following data set ENV with the first column set as row.names:
> ENV TPlog 001S29H 0.601 002S42H 0.602 003S43S 0.779 004S43S 0.702 005S51H 0.978 006S52P 2.718 If I apply > ENV <- ENV[-1,] # remove first row of data (right?) ...ENV comes back as: [1] 0.602 0.779 0.702 0.978 2.718 So I am losing the row name info. I also notice that, if the first two values in the TPlog column are the same, both values are removed! What's going on, and why does this same thing not happen in more complex datasets with more than one column of values? Many thanks - Euan.
