Remove Attributes from Numeric Columns in a Data Frame

Iterates over each column in the provided data frame. If a column is numeric and has attributes, this function removes those attributes by converting the column to a basic numeric vector. This is particularly useful for cleaning data frames after operations that may add undesired attributes to numeric columns, such as aggregations or merges.

Usage

remove_numeric_attributes(df)

Arguments

df

A `data.frame` object from which attributes of numeric columns will be removed.

Value

A `data.frame` with attributes removed from all numeric columns.

Examples

df <- data.frame(a = I(1:3), b = c("x", "y", "z"), c = I(rnorm(3)))
cleaned_df <- remove_numeric_attributes(df)
str(cleaned_df)
#> 'data.frame':	3 obs. of  3 variables:
#>  $ a: 'AsIs' int  1 2 3
#>  $ b: chr  "x" "y" "z"
#>  $ c: 'AsIs' num  0.723613.... 0.456632.... 0.303876....
