Dear R-help,
I am using R 2.1.1 on Windows XP.
I have a tab-delimited data file that has been exported by SAS. The file is
reasonably big so I
apologise that I can't give a good toy example. I do this:
table(count.fields("t1.txt", sep="\t", quote="\""))
248
809
So I have 809 lines, each with 248 fields.
There's something wrong with me, my data or both, since when I try to read the
data, I get this:
dim(read.table("t1.txt", sep="\t", quote="\"", header=TRUE)
[1] 425 248
I wonder if someone could be kind enough to point out what I've done wrong or
suggest some tips
for managing this, please? Thanks for your advice!
