Hi lepodjacket,

It is just a personal preference of mine. <- is what I first learned, so that is why I continue to use it. As you said, <- and = both do the same thing, so choose whichever you like best.

Professional victims' issues aside, thank you for all your videos. Very helpful and informative. Explanation is clear too. Though for this particular video, i think it would be good to show how to import large datasets from csv/excel files instead of making a dataframe from a small self-created vector. That is something that I have been trying to figure out till now and is probably one of the few tough giants for an R newbie like me.

Very helpful...is data frame same as data set in sas? thanks

While reading through the R documents, it appears that <-, <<-, and = are all identical. Is there a reason you use <- ?

Why do you create a dataframe from vectors YOU create ? it's useless. data come in very large number from file. This should be your starting point.
