convertType: Convert Types of Variables

In xxzcool/scoremodel: Credit Scoring Modeling Toolbox

Description

convertType will convert specified variables in dataset to other types.

Usage

convertType(df, toType, vars = -1)

Arguments

df	A dataframe to be converted.
toType	The type converted to be, values must be one of c("fac","cha","int"). If toType="int", the converted result is intercepting the integer part of specified variable, not rounding.
vars	Vector of column names or numbers to convert, -1 means to convert all matched variables based on toType automatically, see details.

Details

when vars=-1, which variables to be converted depends on toType: if toType="fac", all the character variables will be converted; if toType="cha", all the factor variables will be converted; if toType="int", all the numeric variables will be converted.

Value

A new dataframe with the same order of variables

Examples

data(CreditData)
sample_fac <- convertType(CreditData, toType="fac")
