Hi, Looking at a large data set with many factors.
I would like to expand each factor variable into multiple new variables for each level. (0,1) coding. My first though was just to code a big nasty loop, to take each level and cbind a column onto my data set. But, that seems painful. There must be a better way. Is there an "easy" way to do this in R? (Note, I don't want to internally represent the levels in the data set, but physically have new columns for each level with a binary indicator.)
