Hi R,
May be a trivial question, but struggling to find a solution... v=data.frame(a=c("1,234","2,345","5,567")) > v a 1 1,234 2 2,345 3 5,567 I need a column 'b', which is just the addition of column 'a' with 5. How do I do it? And, entries in column 'a' are with commas, always. Also, class(v$a)=factor.
