1. Introduction
This R program concatenates two given factors into a single factor. The result is a unified factor that combines the levels and elements of both original factors.
2. Program Steps
1. Create two factors.
2. Concatenate these factors into a single factor.
3. Print the resulting combined factor.
3. Code Program
# Step 1: Create two factors
factor1 <- factor(c("Apple", "Banana", "Cherry"))
factor2 <- factor(c("Xylophone", "Yacht", "Zebra"))
# Step 2: Concatenate the factors into a single factor
combined_factor <- factor(c(as.character(factor1), as.character(factor2)))
# Step 3: Print the combined factor
print("Combined Factor:")
print(combined_factor)
Output:
Combined Factor: [1] Apple Banana Cherry Xylophone Yacht Zebra Levels: Apple Banana Cherry Xylophone Yacht Zebra
Explanation:
1. factor(c("Apple", "Banana", "Cherry")) and factor(c("Xylophone", "Yacht", "Zebra")): Create two separate factors.
2. factor(c(as.character(factor1), as.character(factor2))): Concatenates the two factors into a single factor. The as.character function is used to ensure that the elements of the factors are correctly combined as characters before creating the new factor.
3. print("Combined Factor:"): Prints a message indicating the combined factor.
4. print(combined_factor): Displays the content of the combined factor, including its levels.
