Hi,

I tried to use naivebayes in package 'e1071'.
when I use following parameter, only one predictor, there is an error.


m- naiveBayes(iris[,1], iris[,5])
table(predict(m, iris[,1]), iris[,5])

Error in log(sapply(attribs, function(v) { :
Non-numeric argument to mathematical function


Either use the more convninient formula notation:

m - naiveBayes(Species ~ Sepal.Length, data = iris)
table(predict(m, iris), iris$Species)


or provide data.frames rather than vectors, hence:


m - naiveBayes(iris[,1,drop=FALSE], iris[,5])
table(predict(m, iris[,1,drop=FALSE]), iris[,5])

However, when I use two predictors, there is not error any more.


m- naiveBayes(iris[,1:2], iris[,5])
table(predict(m, iris[,1:2]), iris[,5])


setosa versicolor virginica
setosa 49 0 0
versicolor 1 37 19
virginica 0 13 31

Do you know what is the problem?
