Hello, There: I read data from tab-delimted text file(1888.txt) in C:/temp, which has thousands rows and 80 colulms, using read.delim("C:/temp/1888.txt"). when I retrieved the numeric coulum which has real zero values and applies R buid-in function such as mean( ), sum() and got a result of NA. It seems that R (R 1.6.2 in windows) considers zero as missing value (NA). Thus my question is how to read the real zero as zero. Thank in advance.
