I have already generated a termDocumentMatrix as showed below:

> tmm
[[1]]
<<DocumentTermMatrix (documents: 18, terms: 4886)>>
Non-/sparse entries: 11956/75992
Sparsity           : 86%
Maximal term length: 25
Weighting          : term frequency (tf)

Then I want to convert it to numeric matrix, it shows an error. The command I use is:

matrix<-data.matrix(tmm)

Then the matrix become a list like this:

list(i = c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,

Where did I got wrong?

    What version of `tm` are you using? Did you try just `as.matrix`? – MrFlick Jul 17 '14 at 17:33
  • Actually, taking another look there the `[[1]]` indicates you probably don't have a document term matrix, you have a **list** that has a document term matrix. What about `as.matrix(tmm[[1]])`. – MrFlick Jul 18 '14 at 01:03

You could try this 

matrix <- as.matrix(inspect(tmm))
