Re: [R] ifelse + numeric

Try leaving the quote marks off the NA: data[,4] <- ifelse(data[,3]<1,data[,1]/(1-data[,3]),NA) You are putting a character value with the "NA" which converts everything else to a character. If you had examined the dataframe with 'str(data)' you would probably have seen the problem. On Wed, Nov

[R] ifelse + numeric

Hi, I have a data frame and I need to add another column. I am using: data[,4] <- ifelse(data[,3]<1,data[,1]/(1-data[,3]),"NA") This is returning values but are in quotation marks. The error I am getting is "non-numeric argument to binary operator" I need column four in data to be numeric. Trie
