Hi,
Try:
datNew <- read.table(text=as.character(mydata$NATIONALITY),sep="_")
mydata2 <- within(mydata,{NATIONALITY <- as.character(datNew[,1]);YEAR <- datNew[,2]})
head(mydata2)
# PROVINCE AGE5 ZONA91OK NATIONALITY FREQUENCY YEAR
#1 1 10-14 101 SPAIN 600 1998
#501 4 30-34 4079 SPAIN 1000 1998
#1001 7 50-54 712 SPAIN 500 1998
#1501 8 40-44 8205 SPAIN 2000 1998
#2001 11 35-39 11022 SPAIN 1000 1998
#2501 14 40-44 14021 SPAIN 10000 1998
A.K.
I have a dataset in which I want to split a variable in two variables, one telling me the nationality and the other the year.
YEAR: four digit number with the year
NATIONALITY: code for the nationality (e.g. SPAIN, EU15DC, etc.)
row PROVINCE AGE5 ZONA91OK NATIONALITY FREQUENCY YEAR
1 1 10-14 101 SPAIN_1998 614.000000 Nationality
501 4 30-34 4079 SPAIN_1998 1943.000000 Nationality
1001 7 50-54 712 SPAIN_1998 596.053095 Nationality
1501 8 40-44 8205 SPAIN_1998 2012.674138 Nationality
so I would like to replace for instance:
NATIONALITY: SPAIN_1998
with
NATIONALITY: SPAIN
and for the corresponding rows
YEAR: 1998
Any help on the issue is very appreciated!
