I am trying to convert the first column of a data frame as Row names.
It works fine but the names of the data frame format changes!
It changes from like 100-21-0 to X100.21.0
First column is Character values: Code, CBT, DQY, DQX etc. and the names (or the first row?) of the data frame (double) like: Code, 100-21-0, 1002-84-2, 100-47-0 etc.
| Code | 100-21-0 |
|---|---|
| CBT | 0 |
| DQY | 1 |
I am using the code similar to:
newdataframe <- data.frame(dataframe, row.names = 1)
It works fine but the names of the data frame change from 100-21-0, 1002-84-2, 100-47-0 to X100.21.0, X1002.84.2, X100.47.0 !!!
I am confused why? Can anyone help on this?
