My friend sent an Excel file: http://msemac.redwoods.edu/~darnold/temp/cyu01_iqscores.xls http://msemac.redwoods.edu/~darnold/temp/cyu01_iqscores.xls
I opened it in Excel, saved is as cyu01_iqscores.csv, then imported it into R with: iqscores=read.csv('cyu01_iqscores.csv',header=TRUE) The result was: > head(iqscores) IQ.Scores X 1 145 NA 2 101 NA 3 123 NA 4 106 NA 5 117 NA 6 102 NA Now, I know I can cure this with: iqscores=iqscores[,1] But I am wondering about this weird behavior. Suggestions?
