Description
Takes an existing column and uses it as rownames instead. This is useful
when turning a data.frame into a matrix.
Inspired by the tibble package's column_to_row which is now
deprecated if done on a tibble object. By coercing to a
data.frame this problem is avoided.
Usage
1
column_to_rownames(x, loc = 1)
Arguments
x
An object that can be coerced to a data.frame.
loc
The column location as either an integer or string index location.
Must be unique row names.
Value
Returns a data.frame with the specified column
moved to rownames.
Examples

state_dat <- data.frame(state.name, state.area, state.center, state.division)
column_to_rownames(state_dat)
column_to_rownames(state_dat, 'state.name')
Example output
state.area x y state.division
