Identifies the variables in common across two dataframes that have different types.

Usage

df2

dataframe 2 (object)

Examples

# Prepare Data
df1 <- data.frame(
  A = 1:3,
  B = 2:4,
  C = 3:5
)

df2 <- data.frame(
  A = as.character(1:3),
  B = 2:4,
  C = as.factor(3:5)
)

# Check if any rows are not NA
varsDifferentTypes(df1, df2)
#>   column type_df1  type_df2
#> A      A  integer character
#> C      C  integer    factor
