Hi,
I'm trying to read in a bunch of CSV files into R where many columns are
coded like $111.11. When reading them in they are treated as factors.
I'm wondering if there is an easy way to convert them into numeric in R
(as I don't want to modify the source data)? I've done some searches
and can't seem to find an easy way to do this.
I apologise if this is a trivial question, I haven't been using R for a
while.
Many thanks in advance!
Cheers
Kev
