Subject: Identifying column type
I have data of mixed types in a data frame - date and numeric, as shown
in summary below. How do I identify the column(s) that is/are not
numeric, in this case, the first. All I want is to identify the
column(s) and so that I can remove it/them from the data frame Thanks.
