Combine Two Vectors into Data Frame or Matrix in R (2 Examples) | data.frame & cbind Functions

R code of this video:

vec1 ＜- 1:10 # Create first vector
vec1 # Print first vector

vec2 ＜- letters[1:10] # Create second vector
vec2 # Print second vector

my_data # Print data frame

my_matrix ＜- cbind(vec1, vec2) # Apply cbind function
my_matrix # Print matrix

Thank you so very much, Herr Professor. The clarity and concision is of your videos is so very apropos to the subject about which you teach.

I am guessing r bind would be a way to combine two vectors that are the flipped 90 degrees

Another excellent video, thank you Joachim. I see in your Environment pane that my_matrix is described as chr [1:10, 1:2]. I followed exactly what you did and I also get a two-column matrix but in my Environment pane it describes my_matrix as chr [1:20]. Is this something that has changed with an update to R or am I missing something?
