Subject: [R] sort() leaves row names unaffected
Hello,
I wonder if I ran into a bug. If I do
summary(df1$X1) -> df1.y
df1.y
a b c d e
[1,] 50.74627 8.955224 17.91045 19.40299 2.985075
sort(df1.y)
a b c d e
[1,] 2.985075 8.955224 17.91045 19.40299 50.74627
my numbers are sorted but do not anymore correspond to the rownames.
For me it is counterintuitive that solely the numbers are sorted and
not the
names. Is there a way to sort names + numbers or is this behaviour of
sort()
unintended?
