dear William ,

I have an issue with R code which is :


FCP<-as.matrix(sapply(FCPval,as.numeric))
for (i in 1:rowN){if (FCP$FC[i] >= 1.5 & FCP$FC[i]<=-1.5 & FCP$p[i]<=0.05){
dfrmPFC=data.frame(matrix(Fc=FC,p=p))}
}

the error is :Error in FCP$FC : $ operator is invalid for atomic vectors
could you please help me
