When Creating Data Frame Character Values Are Stripped From Alphanumeric String

Question

When creating a dataframe one of the columns is alpanumeric and the alpha characters are stripped on

>View(df) 

Code for data frame:

df <- as.data.frame(cbind(df[,1],df[,2],df[,3],df[,4],df[,5],
                          df[,6],df[,7],df[,8],df[,9]))

Column 5 is the field. Example values:

YC1275421
YW3759841
YC1289724

When viewing the dataframe the values are:

1275421
3759841
1289724

I also exported the dataframe and confirmed that the alpha characters were stripped.

How do I create the dataframe so that it contains the alphanumeric string?

Answer 1

As I see this problem, try this solution.

df <- data.frame(df[,1],df[,2],df[,3],df[,4],df[,5],
                          df[,6],df[,7],df[,8],df[,9])

or give head of the data so I can come with better solution.
