If you are using the interp() function from the akima package, it
appears you didn't attach it. Use
library( pkg )
to attach a package named "pkg". You may need to install the package
first; use
install.packages("akima")
if so.
The variable name F may cause you problems: many people use F as an
abbreviation for FALSE; it's a standard variable defined in the base
package. It's a good idea to avoid masking that and causing yourself
confusion later.
If this advice doesn't fix your problem, then please post a reproducible
example for others to try. You might want to select a subset of your
data if it's too big or too private to post here.
