Question

Im trying to categorising my data into different group based on type of data. My data and code is as follow:

bank1   0.73
bank2   0.94
bank3   0.62
b         


        

Answer 1

You could also try:

lst1 <- list(sob, fob, jov)
test$type <- setNames(rep(seq_along(lst1),sapply(lst1,length)),unlist(lst1))[test$bank]
test$type[is.na(test$type) ] <- 4

test$type
#[1] 1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 4
