To provide some mild support for round-tripping variables between Stata/SPSS
and R, haven stores variable formats in an attribute: format.stata,
format.spss, or format.sas. If this causes problems for your
code, you can get rid of them with zap_formats.
Usage
zap_formats(x)
Arguments
x
A vector or data frame.
