The csv file is exactly as you describe it. ";35" represents two columns of
data. If you read it is, you will probably get NA as the value in the first
column. So what problem are you having in reading in the data?
> x <- read.csv(textConnection("8;32
+ 9;33
+ 10;34
+ ;35
+ ;36
+ ;37
+ ;38"), header=FALSE, sep=';')
> closeAllConnections()
> x
V1 V2
1 8 32
2 9 33
3 10 34
4 NA 35
5 NA 36
6 NA 37
7 NA 38
