Convert from lowercase to uppercase all values in all character variables in dataframe

Question

I have a mixed dataframe of character and numeric variables.

city,hs_cd,sl_no,col_01,col_02,col_03
Austin,1,2,,46,Female
Austin,1,3,,32,Male
Austin,1,4,,27,         


        

Answer 1

From the dplyr package you can also use the mutate_all() function in combination with toupper(). This will affect both character and factor classes.

library(dplyr)
df <- mutate_all(df, funs=toupper)
