Josh, Jim,
Thanks for responding. So far, it looks like my use of the name data was the
problem - that could have taken some time to find. I typically do not attach
frames (and did not here), so I end up with lots of this$that in my code.
While I think it's foolish to call your data.frame 'data',
I really doubt that that's the cause of your troubles. More
likely you did something else afterwards that caused your
data to be 'unprintable'. Or perhaps you goofed up the
subsetting with something like
data = data(-3,);
But I would have expected R to print _some_ thing, if only
an error message.
Anyway, I'm glad the problem is resolved (for now).

If it gives me any more trouble, I will indeed post an example.
Thanks!

Subject: Re: [R] Deleting observations - can't see the data after that
Hi Bill,
Several things come to mind. First, try naming your data frame something
besides a function name (data() is also a function).
Second, have you attached the data frame?
Using: data = data[-3, ] worked fine for me when I made up some data.
Perhaps you can create a minimal and reproducible example?
You might also send us the results of:
sessionInfo()
ls()
search()
Cheers,
Josh

Hello all,
I am loading a data frame, fitting a model, getting diagnostic plots and they
are flagging a couple of observations as problematic. Fair enough, and I want
re-fit without them.
After I delete an offending row (identified by one of the diagnostic
plots), something like
data = data[-3,];
then R will no longer print the contents of the data frame; it tells me it is a
data frame with specific (correct) number of rows and columns, but won't show
me what remains in the frame like it does before the deletion. Is there a way
to get around that, either using a different deletion technique or another
function? print(data) and show(data) are not helping.
Ultimately, I am trying to go through a couple of iterations of find
pathologic points, delete and re-fit. In this case I could guess at what is
wrong and probably be correct, but I want to follow the clues as a learning
exercise. Once that is complete, I plan to plot everything with the deleted
points emphasized.
Bill
