Can anyone suggest why this file http://www.mediafire.com/?afeyhhpacaq
is refusing to open for me.?
I must admit I don't know all its history but the original data was taken from
an OOo spreadsheet that I edited (good bit of copying and pasting and the month
variable added by hand in OOo Calc) and, then,saved as a csv file. It was not
originally an English language file as far as I can determine. It may have
been created in Excel for all I know.
If I load the file into my text editor (Tinn-r) I can read the material in
using the textConnection command and have no problem working with it. However
this meant that I spend an hour and a half trying to read the file and 5
minutes doing the graph I wanted. I'd like to avoid my mistake in the future
if possible.
I'm showing my last try below but the directory is almost certainly correct.
I've tried it using a full path name and, as below, after changing the active
directory.
When I try to load the file I get this:
> read.csv("asp.csv", header=TRUE, sep=",")
Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "rt") : cannot open file 'asp.csv': No such file or directory
