This error occurs when you try to perform matrix multiplication with a data frame instead of a matrix. The %*% operator cannot handle data frames. You can solve the error by converting the data frame to a matrix using the as.matrix() function. For example, data <-...

This error occurs when you try to pass a 1-dimensional vector to the colSums function, which expects a 2-dimensional input. If we want to subset a data frame column, we can use the drop argument to preserve the data frame object. For example, df <- data.frame(x1 =...

This error occurs when you try to subset an object outside its number of dimensions. We can get the number of dimensions of an object using the dim() function. We can then solve the error by ensuring we only subset using the available dimensions. This tutorial will go...
