Dear colleagues, in the help archive there was a previous person who encountered a problem with the "recode" command in the car library. I'm not sure if that was solved, there was no posting to that effect, but I'm having the same problem. I'm trying to recode a numeric variable with values from 0-100 into a binary variable with values (0,1). The following command: recode(green_2004_2$french, "c(50:100)=0; c(0:49.99)=1") gets the following error message Error in parse(text = range[[1]][1]) : unexpected end of input in " c(0" I tried it with a second numerical variable in the same data set, but get precisely the same error at precisely the same location in the command, i.e. the second colon. As far as I can tell I have the most up-to-date version of car installed. Any suggestions? Yours, Simon Kiss ********************************* Simon J.
