How to Merge Two Data Frames with a Common Variable in R Using dplyr and merge Functions
Based on the code you provided and the error message you’re seeing, I can help you with that. You have a data frame called will_can and another data frame called will_can_region_norm. You want to add a new column to will_can which will contain values from will_can_region_norm$norm, based on matching values of the variable "REGION" in both datasets. To achieve this, you can use the merge() function. However, as you’ve discovered, it’s not working because you’re trying to merge a data frame with only one column (will_canRegion_norm["norm"]) and another data frame with multiple columns (will_can).
