I have a df, which should be all numerics, but which are all typed as characters. I am trying this:
sapply(df, as.numeric)
Which throws warnings:
There were 50 or more warnings (use warnings() to see the first 50)
I can ignore the warnings, but I would like to find where the issues are. How do I find which column(s) is/are throwing warnings?
This seems fairly basic, but I cannot figure out how to get it.
If it helps:
test <- as.data.frame(list(c("1","2","3"), c("1","poop","3")))
> sapply(test, as.numeric)
c..1....2....3.. c..1....poop....3..
[1,] 1 1
[2,] 2 NA
[3,] 3 3
Warning message:
In lapply(X = X, FUN = FUN, ...) : NAs introduced by coercion
What I would like is a function which tells me that column 2 is the problematic one.
Thanks to @RichScriven.
This works:
