After having read through some literature on R, I am happy with collecting it, and visualizing numbers. Unfortunately I do find it hard to compare and visualize string data. The data is from a LimeSurvey with lots of YES/NO or multi-choice questions (check-boxes)
Among the check-boxes there a couple of options with the data are (Ikke valgt=NOT CHECKED, Ja= CHECKED): > data$perf_none [1] Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ikke valgt [7] Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ja [13] Ja Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ikke valgt > data$perf_pct [1] Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ja Ja Ja [7] Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ja Ja Ja Ikke valgt [13] Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ja Ikke valgt Ikke valgt Ja A yes/no question as below. > data$suppl [1] <NA> Ja Ja <NA> Nei Ja <NA> Ja <NA> <NA> Nei <NA> Nei Ja Nei [16] Ja Ja Ja Ja <NA> Ja Nei Nei Nei Ja Nei Ja <NA> <NA> Ja I can run command like plot(data$perf_none) and that is about it. It gets a bit tricky when the literature refers to examples where all data is numeric and not text like here. Could anyone point me in a direction for more helpful investigations like searching correlations. I would also like to be able to visualize the data from such non-numeric vectors. The question is general but examples and hints would be appreciated. ok [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ 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.
