Hello!
I have just uninstalled the R 2.4.1 that i was using and installed the latest
version (R 2.12.1).
In order to read a text file, i was copying the text file to C/Program
Files/R/R 2.4.1, and the previous version was able to read it from there.
I did the same think for the new version (copy text file to C/Program Files/R/R
2.12.1) and i tried to open it:
data<- read.table('intersand.txt')
but the result was:
Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "rt") :
cannot open file 'intersand.txt': No such file or directory
Can someone tell me what the problem is? Must i copy the text file somewhere
else?
Use
setwd(choose.dir())
to set the current working directory wherever your file is, then you'll
be able to read it. Or use
read.table(file.choose())
to find the file and read it from wherever it was sitting.
