I had an NA in one row of my data frame, so I called na.omit(). But I do
not understand where that row disappeared to.
>fri=na.omit(fri)
> fri

So, the index numbers of the rows do not seem to have been updated. They
are not part of my data frame (I think), so why didn't the rows renumber
themselves?
Thanks,
