It seems very simple but I could not find the way. I just want to add two
columns of a data frame. I am doing the below operation: 

data$C=transform(data, data$A+data$B)

However that return as a data frame. I will be glad if ypu help. Thanks a
lot

mydata <- data.frame(aa=1:5, bb=1:5)
mydata[,3] <- mydata[,1] + mydata[,2]
mydata
