[R] Join data frame columns

[Ivan Calandra]

Hi!

Either I don't understand what you want to do, or it doesn't make any sense.

First, a vector cannot have different modes. If you want a single vector 
it will most likely be coerced in to characters; probably not what you want.

Second, what you do is build a data.frame with another data.frame 
without doing anything. What is df? Provide the output of dput(df).
How do you want new_df to look like? What is the difference with df?
