Dear Gary, Here is a suggestion using read.table() and textConnection():
toread <- "id sex age inc r1 r2 r3 1 F 35 17 7 2 2 17 M 50 14 5 5 3 33 F 45 6 7 2 7 49 M 24 14 7 5 7 65 F 52 9 4 7 7 81 M 44 11 7 7 7 2 F 34 17 6 5 3 18 M 40 14 7 5 2 34 F 47 6 6 5 6 50 M 35 17 5 7 5" survey <- read.table(textConnection(toread), header = TRUE) closeAllConnections() survey See ?read.table and ?textConnection for more information.
