Hi,
I am working on project to build a model for analysing Mortgage-backed
securities.
I am doing this as a part of my summer project.
After much thought I have decided on using R for doing this modelling.
One of the steps in this model is making an interest rate model to generate

Dear Users,
I'm a complete novice to R.
I need to do a crosstabs in R, but my data is almost completely
alphanumeric (with some variables scaled). The Table routine does not
seem to accept alphanumeric data. What should I do? Do I need to recode
it? How should I do that?
Thanks in advance,

Both format and formatC (and sprintf) use C facilities for scientific
format. As far as I know C has no facilities for your desired format, so
you would need to write your own C code and interface to R.

If results are *very* different, I would suspect that R treated experien as a

makes R treat such variables as factors -- set use.value.labels = F).
