Dear all, I want to read a 1.2 G file with 136,736,218 numbers with scan function, and then want make a histogram with those numbers, but it showed Error: cannot allocate vector of size 2.0 Gb. How can I import the file then?
The version I used: > sessionInfo() R version 2.8.1 (2008-12-22) i686-pc-linux-gnu > mem.limits() nsize vsize NA NA and the computer I use has 4G memory in total. Thank you very much!
