R help - May 2012 - problem with data frame to numeric transformation

http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4630788/GOF_CGIK.R GOF_CGIK.R  
http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4630788/RESIDSNEWr.csv RESIDSNEWr.csv 

In order to save place, I attach the data and the R code, for which I have 2
questions.

1/ I cannot convert successfully the data frames with names "first"
and
"second" in numeric format. They participate here: 

calibKendallsTau(cc,cor(first,second,method="kendall")) and I get an
error
message.

2/ I have cut the dates from my data file RESIDSNEWr.csv, but let's suppose
I want to keep them. How shall I update the code from 1/ in order to have
also the dates?

Many thanks in advance to all, who will answer my message

Hello,

You need to tell read.table that the table has headers.


# needed 'header=TRUE'
first <- read.table("RESIDSNEWr.csv", sep=";",
quote="\"",
header=TRUE)[c(1)]
second <- read.table("RESIDSNEWr.csv", sep=";",
quote="\"",
header=TRUE)[c(2)]
# see what they look like
str(first)
str(second)

is.numeric(first) ## FALSE
is.numeric(second) ## FALSE

is.numeric(first$aaa) ## TRUE
is.numeric(second$bbb) ## TRUE
# general purpose
sapply(first, is.numeric)
sapply(second, is.numeric)


And the rest works at the first try.
> calibKendallsTau(cc,cor(first,second,method="kendall"))
         bbb
aaa 4.420256
> 
> ## goodness-of-fit tests
> gf.cc <- gofCopula(cc,u,method="itau")
Progress will be displayed every 100 iterations.
Iteration 100 
[...etc...]
Iteration 1000

> gf.cc$pvalue
[1] 0.0004995005


Hope this helps,
