[R] Problem with rbinom

[Alexander Geisler]

Hello!

I have the following problem: I calculate a variable called pd in Excel, 
save it as pd.txt, so that it looks like the following:

pd
0.070568471
0.011275136
0.006892258
0.028592432
0.028489582
0.01881913
0.035426606
0.011517305

There were 4857 cases in pd.txt.

After that I start R and load the data through the following command:
daten <- read.table("pd.txt", header=T)

Then I want to execute the function rbinom:

rbinom(4857,1,daten)

I get the following error message:
Fehler in rbinom(n, size, prob) : ungültige Argumente
(error in rbinom(n, size, prob) : bad arguments

The problem is daten, because if I excecute rbinom(4857,1,0.5), then it 
works.

So, I have no idea, what the problem could be.
