Thank you! The c was missing. I don't know if it's ok to continue on this
thread, but I also had another question about reading data. I have this
file containing 3 columns and 19 rows.

I tried to read it into R, but I'm not exactly sure exactly what to use as
input. This is my input line using read.table:

data1 <- read.table(file = "filename.txt", header=FALSE, col.names =
c("class", "P", "1G"))

but in the output I get an X infront of "1G", which disappears when I run
it with the name 'G' instead of '1G'. Am I not allowed to use numerical
values? 

Best,
Anna
