Predicting data using the rpart decision tree

Question

I use R to classify a data frame named "d" containing data structured as shown below:

The data has 576666 rows, and the "classLabel" column has a coefficient of 3 levels: ONE, TWO, THREE.

I am making a decision tree using rpart:

fitTree = rpart(d$classLabel ~ d$tripduration + d$from_station_id + d$gender +  d$birthday)

And I want to predict the values ​​for classLabel for newdata:

newdata = data.frame( tripduration=c(345,244,543,311), 
                      from_station_id=c(60,28,100,56),
                      gender=c("Male","Female","Male","Male"),  
                      birthday=c(1972,1955,1964,1967) )

 p <- predict(fitTree, newdata)

I expect my result to be a 4 row matrix with a probability of three possible values ​​for "classLabel" newdata. But what I get as a result in p is a file frame of 576666 lines, as shown below:

I also get the following warning when the function starts predict:

Warning message:
'newdata' had 4 rows but variables found have 576666 rows 

Where am I doing wrong ?!

Answer 1

, : "type = 'class" :

    predict(fitTree,newdata,type="class")

. "iris".
