I don't know how to rename rowname

[belluguet]

After trying everything, I can't get out of it. I have some data in a data frame where the first column is names, the other three are integers. I would like to run the cluster and factoextra packages but procedures such as scalar are forbidden to me because they are found with the text variable. I would like this variable to appear in both text and graphic results. A little help please.

Hi, @belluguet Welcome to Posit community.
I found a link that may be helpful to you. Like the example by seting the label and habillage? When scale, overlook the text column. Like the example code from the link. I am just an R beginner.

# Compute PCA on the iris data set
# The variable Species (index = 5) is removed
# before PCA analysis
iris.pca <- PCA(iris[,-5], graph = FALSE)

# Visualize
# Use habillage to specify groups for coloring
fviz_pca_ind(iris.pca,
             label = "none", # hide individual labels
             habillage = iris$Species, # color by groups
             palette = c("#00AFBB", "#E7B800", "#FC4E07"),
             addEllipses = TRUE # Concentration ellipses
             )

Your goal seems at odds with general practice in this area, hence your struggle to make the tools work in the way you describe.
Can you motivate this with a simple example (without reference to data on onedrive?)

In the simplest example of wanting to scale the numeric data; you can simply divide the data, and recombine it after processing . like so:

(hiris <- head(iris))

# error 
scale(hiris)

(scaled_hiris <- cbind(data.frame(scale(hiris[,-5])),
                       Species = hiris[,5]))
