Dear Alfa

Although John's advice is excellent if you already have the dataset in R in your case it seems that is not the case. Since R-help strips off most attachments you may need to put your .csv file somewhere like Dropbox or fool R-help into thinking it is a plain text file.

No data. See dput() (?dput) as the preferred way to send data

Subject: [R] best data storage format?

Hello -

I’m working on dataset that will eventually be used in an xyz-plot.

I’m having trouble figuring out the best way to store the data (see an
attached .csv sheet exported from Excel). Some information on the data:

- Columns B - F are labels that describe the z data points
- Rows above x and y data pairs show the corresponding labels for the
data point.

I want to use R to visualize the data and appreciate any feedback on the
best mechanism to store/organize the info. I’m new to R and want to start
the data assembly on the right foot - thanks for the help and advice!

Alfa
