model.matrix()

Hi,

In R I get the following:

x <- 1:9
f <- as.factor(1:9)
i <- model.matrix(~x+f)

attr(i, "assign")

[1] 0 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2

whereas in S I get the following:

 attr(i, "assign")

$"(Intercept)":
[1] 1

$x:
[1] 2

$f:
[1]  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10

Has anybody written a model.matrix function to get the same
result as S? It's just that S's output is what I want, viz.,

1. the names "(Intercept)","x","f", and 

2. the vector values.

Thanks

Thomas
