Hi r-help-bounces at r-project.org napsal dne 14.12.2007 13:39:02:
Hi, I think this is a pretty basic question. I still couldn#t find the
answer to
it, though. I have some data loaded into R, which looks like this:
data()
... 38358 Advice Article 38359 Advice Article 38360 GeneralInfo List 38361 GeneralInfo Article 38362 Purchase Paragraphs 38363 Purchase List 38364 Purchase Paragraphs ...
If it is factor you can change its levels
temp$V1
[1] A01 A01 A01 A02 A02 A03 A03 A04 Levels: A01 A02 A03 A04
levels(temp$V1)
[1] "A01" "A02" "A03" "A04"
levels(temp$V1)[1:2]<-"one" temp$V1
[1] one one one one one A03 A03 A04 Levels: one A03 A04 Regards Petr
I now would like to edit the data in such a way that every "Advice" is changed into "GeneralInfo". Is there some easy way how I can do this? Thanks a lot!
