Is there an efficient way to create a series of dummy codes from a single variable?
For example, I have a variable, “grade” = {2, …, 12}. I want to create k-1
dummy codes for grade such that grade 2 is the base (i.e, grade 2 =0).
I am hoping that the new variables can be labeled as grade.3, grade.4 etc. I'll then
use
grade <- paste("grade.", 3:12, sep="") in as.formula to build the model.
Thanks,
Harold
