Rafael and I were wondering if there's a way to convert a character into a number on Rstudio. For example check the data set of "women" included in R: the variables "height" and "weight" are considered characters even though they are numbers; therefore, it's not possible to calculate some statistics!!
Thanks a lot! :)
