WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN? BMI RECODE CLEAN #8

Closed mworni closed 12 years ago

mworni commented 12 years ago

BMI_RECIP_clean <- recode(BMI_RECIP, " BMI_RECIP[BMI_RECIP>100] = NA " ) Error in recode.default(BMI_RECIP, " BMI_RECIP[BMI_RECIP>100] = NA ") : object '.data' not found

rpietro commented 12 years ago

you are not using the subset, please see the recode script i created, which uses subsetting

we don't understand...

rpietro commented 12 years ago

like this:

BMI_RECIP_clean <- recode(BMI_RECIP, " BMI_RECIP[BMI_RECIP>100] = NA; " )

more specifically, BMI_RECIP[BMI_RECIP>100] = NA means (a) take BMI_RECIP, but (b) only the subset of BMI_RECIP>100 (the [ ] means the subset of ) and (c) recode it to NA

let me know if this is not clear, also http://goo.gl/jDSxl or get me on a chat and i will explain further

ricardo - it is not that I don't understand the code but it always gives an error message. what is ".data" not found? I did upload the dataset.

Error in recode.default(BMI_RECIP, " BMI_RECIP[BMI_RECIP>100] = NA ") :

object '.data' not found

note to self: never write code on a rush -- just fixed it, should work now, or at least it works on mine. please try:

BMI_RECIP[BMI_RECIP>100] <- NA qplot(BMI_RECIP)

cool - now it works - the benefit is even that the variable name does not change this way!
