Hi Philipp, # Sorry - perhaps I wasn't being very clear. For example, creating the data frame: df<-data.frame(y=rnorm(100), x=array(1:100)) # gives 2 elements, the last of which has a dim attribute lapply(df, dim) # I would like some way of changing the dim attribute to NULL for all elements. Thanks, Jarrod
I was wondering whether there was an easy way to change the attributes of all elements in a data.frame (rather than looping through elements)? Specifically, I would like to set the "dim" attributes to NULL
Maybe I just don't really understand what you are after. The elements of a data.frame are vectors so by definition they only have one dimension. Furthermore, they are required to be the same length - otherwise it wouldn't be a proper data.frame, anymore. So I guess you really want to accomplish something I didn't quite grasp. Could you give an example? cu Philipp
