Help with not meaningful for factors?

General
1

Hi, I have a line code which confuses me, a few hours ago I typed this:
etiquetas <- paste(names(TTipoInm),
round(TTipoInm/length(No)*100,2), "%")
It cames from a data base, the thing is that at first it appeared an error like this:
Warning message:
In Ops.factor(left, right) : ‘/’ not meaningful for factors

After hours, and somehow, I rewrited it in the same way but now this time, it worked!
I don't know why this happened...
Now I'm trying to make an RMarkdown and I'm running all the codes to make sure everything is fine, and now it's happening again... Can someone explain me, why it works sometimes, and then after a moment it doesn't?

PD: I'm new in this community, sorry If I'm not being clear with my problem :frowning:

Hi!

To help us help you, could you please prepare a reproducible example (reprex) illustrating your issue? Please have a look at this guide, to see how to create one:

I'd like to, but how Can I put the database here? Or it's enough if I put all my codelines?

Read the guide and think about your object.
Presumably its called. TTipoInm

The thing Is that I need to create and show some graphics and explain them, I need to show this in a RMarkdown but that's another thing.
Here's all the data, and then I execute this:

library(readxl)
read_excel("Base2Hojas.xlsx")
##In this part I'm making a base with the data that I showed before
base <- read_excel("Base2Hojas.xlsx")
View(base)
BaseH1 <- read_excel("Base2Hojas.xlsx", sheet="Inmob")
attach(base)
##I Make a table with the information I showed before
TTipoInm <- table(Tipo_de_Inmueble)
TTipoInm <- transform(TTipoInm,
                      Porc= round(prop.table(Freq)*100, 2)))
##Then I save that stuff in a new object
etiquetas <- paste(names(TTipoInm),
                   round(TTipoInm/length(No)*100,2), "%")
##And when I try to execute this, here's the point where appears the error code which I said before
##As I said, when I tried at first, the error became, but after, a few hours later I writted it in the same way and it worked. Why?
pie(TTipoInm, main= "Tipo de Inmueble", col= rainbow(2), clockwise=T,
    labels= etiquetas)
legend= legend("topright", c("Casa", "Local"), cex= 0.8,
               fill= rainbow(length(TTipoInm)))
TProv <- table(Provincia)
piepercent1 <- round(100*TProv/length(No), 2)
pie(TProv, main= "Provincia", col= rainbow(length(TProv)), clockwise= T,
    labels= piepercent1)
legend('bottom', legend= rownames(TProv), bty='n',
       fill= (rainbow(length(TProv))), horiz= TRUE,
       inset= c(0,-0.1), xpd= TRUE, cex= 0.8)
legend= legend("topright", c("Casa", "Local"), cex= 0.8,
               fill= rainbow(length(TTipoInm)))

There's another thing, recently I tried to Markdown this, and I got this error:
Error in pie(TTipoInm, main = "Tipo de Inmueble", col = rainbow(2), clockwise = T, :
'x' values must be positive.
Calls: ... withCallingHandlers -> withVisible -> eval -> eval -> pie

Is this too much information? Sorry, I 'm new and I hope it's ok :frowning:

please edit your post. The guide you were linked to twice previously does not say to post markdown tables.
it says to use dput. also you should say what name in your code any data shared represents.

7

It seems you speak Spanish so maybe the Spanish version of the reprex guide would be easier to understand your fou.

8

THanks! Haha, I speak spanish, but I'm comfortable with the english, the thing is that I didn't know if the database I uploaded was enough, or too much lmao. Thank you!

9

Hi, sorry, That's an Excel data base, I show in that way cause It's the only way I found to show the data I work with, I tried to explain more my code execution, is it ok?

10

I think it's too much but that is not the main problem, if you read the guide you would notice that what you have posted is not in a copy/paste friendly format and it is not clear how it relates to your code.
Please read the guide (in case you haven't notice it is a link so you have to click on it to get the full content) more carefully and try to make a proper minimal reproducible example.

11

here is a quick way to supply some sample data

Run this and paste the results here
dput(head(BaseH1, 50))

12

Hmmm but BaseH1 is mentioned only once in the code. Therefore it cant be a contributing part of a chain of object manipulations

Probably the info used is in base, as that gets attached.
I would shy away from attaching with a beginner...
