Greetings, I am recoding a dummy variable (coded 1,0) so that 0 = 2. I am using the line sciach$dummyba[sciach$ba==0] <- 2 I notice that it creates a new column dummyba, with 0 coded as 2 but with 1's now coded as NA. Is there a simple way around this in the line I am using, or do I need to have an additional line sciach$dummyba[sciach$ba==1] <- 1 Thanks in advance. David

Hi all, In using the identify command, I get the following message > plot(hatvalues(scireg3)) > abline(h=.0154,lty=2) # plots a reference line at (k + 1)/n > identify(1:1165, hatvalues(scireg3),row.names(sciach)) Error in xy.coords(x, y) : 'x' and 'y' lengths differ which doesn't allow me to see the observation number when I scroll over with the mouse. What exactly is this problem and is there a way to override it? Thanks in advance. -- ======================================...

Let me try to be more specific. The x y coordinates are different because of NAs in the dataset. In this analysis, a set of hat values (a measure of influence in regression) is given for each observation. On the basis of the regression that was run to get these hat values, the sample size was 1164 (one removed due to NA). The length of the data set is 1165. If I remove the NA from the
