if-statement: If-Else statement as vector in dataframe in R [duplicate]

vendredi 8 janvier 2021

I am trying to write a line of code in R to create a variable consisting of strings corresponding to the value of another variable.

batting$spray <- with(batting, (if(Pull > 120){
  "Pull"
} else {
  "Neutral"
}

The goal of this is for each data point, the variable spray will be "Pull" if Pull > 120 or "Neutral" otherwise.

However, this code is returning an error.

Warning message:
In if (Pull > 120) { :
  the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used

How should I approach fixing this?
