factor_to_char: Converts Factors to Characters in an Object
Description
Converts factors to characters in an object. Leaves
non-character elements untouched.
Usage
factor_to_char(X, inplace = FALSE)
Arguments
X
an object.
inplace
Boolean; if TRUE we modify the
object in place. Useful if you're modifying a list and
don't want to force a copy, but be wary of other symbols
pointing as the same data.
Details
We iterate through all elements in the object (e.g. if it
is a list) and convert anything that is a factor into a
character.
