When I use correlation function in RstudioThis I get below error message:
The dataset that I have imported is show below and V1,V2 are given by default to the columns:

There are two ways:
1) Attaching the data:
attach(data1)
And then this code should work:
cor(V1, V2)
2) Using $ for accesing columns in a dataframe
cor(data1$V1, data1$V2)

So, if I got you correctly, you want to find correlation between variables V1 and V2 in the dataframe data1. To refer to the column in the dataframe a $ sign is used. Then your code will look like:
cor(data1$V1,data1$V2)
or, if you want, you can also use with() function, which would narrow down the namespace to particular dataframe data1:
with(data1, cor(V1, V2))

I am trying to use the air dataset from the dummies package.
I tried:
library(dummies)
dumair<-air[c(5:18)]
but that throws the following error:
Error in `[.data.frame`(air, c(5:18)) : undefined columns selected
How can I overcome this?
You need to specify which columns you want to select. When selecting rows and columns from a dataframe, you need to specify them like this:
df[rows, columns]
If you need all columns, leave the "columns" field empty. Same if you want all rows but only some columns!
I believe you want to select all columns, but only the rows from 5 to 18, right?
So doing:
dumair <- air[c(5:18), ]
Should work!

Okay so I'm making logs of some distance variables
- example;
loghospital=log(hospital_2015_distance, base=exp(1))
Works, i get values that i can run in a regression.
However for my LASSO regression it's better i specify a dataset.
So i want a dataframe of these logs (values).
Or better I want these logs (values) added to my existing dataframe called (data).
Any idea how this can be achieved? And if not, what else i should do to achieve the same?
To add it to your data.frame you can use $:
data$loghospital = log(hospital_2015_distance, base=exp(1))
Also you could use [[ or [ and probably should <- instead of = for assignment:
# Examples:
data[["loghospital"]] <- log(hospital_2015_distance, base=exp(1))
data["loghospital"] <- log(hospital_2015_distance, base=exp(1))
data[, "loghospital"] <- log(hospital_2015_distance, base=exp(1))

I am trying to convert factors from a data-frame to numeric using the commands
data[] <- lapply (data, function(x) as.numeric(as.character(x))
But it keeps asking me for more coding. What am I doing wrong?
The data-frame is named data and it consists of 50 rows and 2 columns. Will this command change every variable in numeric right? Or shall I do something else?

Shouldn't you add ) at the end of your code?

I got data with ASCII form.
I ran it with R, and these data have * marked when it is under other condition.
enter image description here
V1, V2, V3, V4, V5 don't mean anything different. All that matters is to classify between *-ed things.
I tried c(V1,V2,V3,V4,V5) but it returns only the levels.
I have no idea. Help me with it.
Question. Can I specify *-ed things via some code?
Is there a way to make these columned things in one data?
Select the values marked with *. I guess these values come with the symbol from the original file, right?
In this case use:
position <- grep('\\*', as.matrix(distress[]))
selectedValues <- as.matrix(distress[])[position]
numericValues <- as.numeric(gsub('\*', '', selectedValues))

I have a data frame that has some empty entries. I set the
options(stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
so that I can change the empty cells. I then wrote the following code:
apply(my_data[,6:65],2, function(x) x[which(x=='')]<-0)
, hoping that it replaces all the empty cells with zeros. But it isn't working!
Note that my_data has 65 columns and columns 1:5 contain string.
Thanks in advance
No need to use apply, just use [<- with logical indexing
my_data[my_data==""] <- 0
