Sorting a data frame with values of different lengths

William Armstrong 
Thanks for catching that, Sarah.

It seems like the problem was that I was using the c() function to combine
terms (including W) that I was adding to a data frame.

This caused R to convert the numeric W to a character string.

I fixed this by using data.frame() and then rbind() instead of c() and
rbind(), which is now giving me the results I was expecting.

Thank you very much for your help.

Billy
