How do I change a single value in a data.frame?

Question

Could anyone explain how to change a single cell in a data.frame to something else. Basically I just want to rename that one cell, not all cells which matches it. I can´t use the edit() command because it will screw up my script since im using the data.frame on several occasions.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

data.frame[row_number, column_number] = new_value

例如，如果x是您的data.frame：

x[1, 4] = 5

Answer 2

要使用列名更改单元格值，可以使用

iris$Sepal.Length[3]=999

Answer 3

In RStudio you can write directly in a cell. Suppose your data.frame is called myDataFrame and the row and column are called columnName and rowName . Then the code would look like:

myDataFrame["rowName", "columnName"] <- value

Hope that helps!

Answer 4

Suppose your dataframe is df and you want to change gender from 2 to 1 in participant id 5 then you should determine the row by writing "==" as you can see

 df["rowName", "columnName"] <- value
 df[df$serial.id==5, "gender"] <- 1
