Hi, I am trying to parse XML files and read them into R as a data frame, but have been unable to find examples which I could apply successfully.
I'm afraid I don't know much about XML, which makes this all the more difficult. If someone could point me in the right direction to a resource (preferably with an example or two), it would be greatly appreciated. Here is a snippet from one of the XML files that I am looking to read, and I am aiming to be able to get it into a data frame with columns N, T, A, B, C as in the 2nd level of the heirarchy. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> - <C S="UnitA" D="1/3/2007" C="24745" F="24648"> <T N="1" T="9:30:13 AM" A="30.05" B="29.85" C="30.05" /> <T N="2" T="9:31:05 AM" A="29.89" B="29.78" C="30.05" /> <T N="3" T="9:31:05 AM" A="29.9" B="29.86" C="29.87" /> <T N="4" T="9:31:05 AM" A="29.86" B="29.86" C="29.87" /> <T N="5" T="9:31:05 AM" A="29.89" B="29.86" C="29.87" /> <T N="6" T="9:31:06 AM" A="29.89" B="29.85" C="29.86" /> <T N="7" T="9:31:06 AM" A="29.89" B="29.85" C="29.86" /> <T N="8" T="9:31:06 AM" A="29.89" B="29.85" C="29.86" /> </C> Thanks for any help or direction anyone can provide. As a point of reference, I am using R 2.8.1 and have loaded the XML package. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
