I suspect there may be a bug in base::rbind.data.frame Below there is minimal example of the problem: m <- matrix (1:12, 3) dfm <- data.frame (c = 1 : 3, m = I (m)) str (dfm) m.names <- m rownames (m.names) <- letters [1:3] dfm.names <- data.frame (c = 1 : 3, m = I (m.names)) str (dfm.names) rbind (m, m.names) rbind (m.names, m) rbind (dfm, dfm.names) #not working rbind

I'm not sure whether or not this is a bug, but I did isolate the line where the error is thrown: src/library/base/R/dataframe.R:1395. https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/01374c3c367fa12f555fd354f735a6e16e5bd98e/src/library/base/R/dataframe.R#L1395 The error is thrown because the line attempts to set a subset of the rownames to NULL, which fails. R> options(error = recover) R> rbind(dfm.names, dfm) Error in rownames(value[[jj]])[ri] <- rownames(xij) : replacement has length zero Enter a frame number, or 0 to exit 1: rbind(dfm.n...
