R Data Type Conversion Guide

In R language, you can employ the following functions for data type conversion:

  1. Convert the data to numeric using the as.numeric() function.
x <- "10"
x <- as.numeric(x)
  1. Convert the data to an integer using the as.integer() function.
x <- 10.5
x <- as.integer(x)
  1. Convert the data to character type using the as.character() function.
x <- 10
x <- as.character(x)
  1. Convert the data to logical type using the as.logical() function.
x <- "TRUE"
x <- as.logical(x)

It is important to note that when performing data type conversions, ensure that the original data format is compatible with the target data type to avoid errors.
