I just have what seems like a simple list of numbers, that I’d like to recategorize.
The numbers are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
I’d like to recode such that 1,2 = 1, 5=2 and 3,4,6,7 = 3.
I’ve tried the following without luck:

df %>% mutate(var=recode(var, ‘1’=’1′, ‘2’=’1′, ‘3’=’3′, ‘4’=’3′, ‘5’=’2′, ‘6’=’3′, ‘7’=’3′))
recode(df$var, 1 = 1, 2 = 1, 5 = 2, 3 = 3, 4 = 3, 6 = 3, 7 = 3)

Any tips?

Thanks!

Please see above- Mutate, recode.
