Hi,
Thanks in advance.
May I request you to assist me for the following please.
I am using R-3.0.1 on Windows.
Is there any R package or R function to read a .rar file (file with an
extension rar)?
Use system() with however you unpack rar files on your OS. .rar files
are archives, not files you could usefully read into R (just like tar
and zip archives). At least, the commonest such files are, and those
are already pretty uncommon.
There are several ways to unpack on Windows, at least 7-zip, WinZip,
UnRAR (2x), WinRAR.
Once again, thank you very much for the time you have given.
Regards,
Deb
