Hello, I'm new to R and in the process of testing it My first question: I fail to read in my data (ANSI toto.txt file, tab separated) > test <-read.table("toto.txt") Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message: cannot open file `toto.txt' > test <- scan("C:\\toto.txt") Error in scan("C:\\toto.txt") : "scan" expected a real, got "No_D" > test <-scan("test.dat") Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message: cannot open file `toto.txt (and no, it is not read only or locked or whatever) I use Windows 2000/XP
second question...what are the size limits of statistical files I can handle? I plan to analize plant datas (up to 500'000 records, from which I will analize a restrictive set of variates ) Even when broken down by some chracteristics, the data to analize can have 50'000-100'000 records Well thank for the help Anne [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
