To convert a data.frame to a data.table in R, you can use the data.table()
function from the data.table
package. Here's an example:
main.r196 chars11 lines
In this example, we first create a sample data.frame df
with two columns (a
and b
). We then use the data.table()
function to convert df
to a data.table dt
. Finally, we print the resulting data.table with the print()
function.
Note that when you transform a data.frame to a data.table, the resulting data.table is not a copy of the original data.frame. Instead, the data.table is created by reference, meaning that modifying the original data.frame will also modify the data.table, and vice versa.
