This error occurs if you put the else statement on a new line after an if statement. R interprets the if statement as complete and does not expect an else. You can solve this error by enclosing the entire if/else statement in braces/curly brackets {} or put the else...

If you try to use the predict() function and the column names in the test data frame do not match those in the data frame used to fit the model, you will raise the error in eval(predvars, data, env): object 'x' not found. The 'x' will be the column name that does not...

If you try to perform an arithmetic operation and one or both of the operands are non-numeric, you will raise the error: non-numeric argument to binary operator. This error typically occurs when one of the operands is of character type. To solve this error, you can...

In R, if you incorrectly pass data to the predict() function when evaluating a model, you will raise the error model.frame.default: 'data' must be a data.frame, environment, or list. The predict() function expects a data frame. You can solve this error by ensuring the...

In R, if you perform an operation on objects with different lengths, you will get the warning message: longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length. This warning happens specifically if the length of the longer object is not a multiple of the...

In R, the error: plot.window(...): need finite 'ylim' values occurs when you try to plot data that contains missing or non-numeric values on the y-axis. You will get a similar error: plot.window(...): need finite 'xlim' values if you have missing or non-numeric values...

In R, if you try to load a file that does not exist using load() function, you will raise the error Error in readchar(con, 5l, usebytes = true) : cannot open the connection. To solve this error you need to check that the file exists and that the spelling you used for...

In R, if you try to call a function and pass arguments that are not defined, you will raise the error: unused arguments. The error message will indicate which argument is unnecessary, and you can remove it to solve the error. If you are using a built-in function, you...

If you try to plot two variables and the variables do not have the same length, you will encounter the error: 'x' and 'y' lengths differ. You can solve this error by ensuring the variables have the same length or by plotting only up to where the variables are the same...
