Subject: rbind Missing Something: Need New Eyes
I don't see what's missing in my statements to add rows to a data frame
and someone else will probably see what needs to be added to the statements.
The data frame has this structure (without any data):
$ PHYLUM : chr
$ SUBPHYLUM : chr
$ SUPERCLASS : chr
$ CLASS : chr
$ SUBCLASS : chr
$ INFRACLASS : chr
$ SUPERORDER : chr
$ ORDER : chr
$ SUBORDER : chr
$ INFRAORDER : chr
$ SUPERFAMILY: chr
$ FAMILY : chr
$ SUBFAMILY : chr
$ TRIBE : chr
$ SUBTRIBE : chr
$ GENUS : chr
$ TAXON : chr
One command (all on one line) is:
itis.ttable <- rbind(itis.ttable, data.frame(PHYLUM = "ARTHROPODA",
SUBPHYLUM = "MANDIBULATA", SUPERCLASS = NA, CLASS = "INSECTA", SUBCLASS =
"DICONDYLIA", INFRACLASS = "PTERYGOTA", SUPERORDER = "PANORPIDA", ORDER =
"TRICHOPTERA", SUBORDER = "INTEGRIPALPIA", INFRAORDER = "PLENITENTORIA",
SUPERFAMILY = "LIMNEPHILOIDAE", FAMILY = "LIMNEPHILIDAE", SUBFAMILY =
"LIMNEPHILINAE", TRIBE = "STENOPHYLACINI", SUBTRIBE = NA, GENUS =
"CHYRANDRA", TAXON = "CENTRALIS"))
R's response is to ask for more input by displaying the continuation
prompt, +.
What am I not seeing that R needs to add this row to the data frame?
