[R] problem with factor in list (same name for diffrent category)
Hello I try to ignore the problems with the umlaut. I read the file in with:> library("foreign") > daten <- read.spss(filename)Then I want select a "Vorlage" (vote), but if I want select for example [6] and not 6 and 7 how can I select it? The real name is a other problem, but I can solve this via date.> levels(daten$PROJETX)[1] "Bg Stammzellenforschung" [2] "Bb " [3] "Bb Neugestaltung des Finanzausgleichs" [4] "" [5] "EV Postdienste f" [6] "Bb " [7] "Bb " [8] "Bg Steuerpaket" [9] "Bb Anhebung der Mehrwertsteuer s" [10] "11. AHV-Revision" [11] "Volkinitiative Lebenslange Verwahrung" [12] "" . . . Select with:> pos <- daten$PROJETX=="11. AHV-Revision" > summary(pos)Mode FALSE TRUE logical 200373 1002 This is okay.> pos <- daten$PROJETX==(levels(daten$PROJETX)[6]) > summary(pos)Mode FALSE TRUE logical 194904 6471 Too many TRUE's.
