I have R code to read a binary header file, consisting of several readBin() and readChar() statements. I am currently using version R-2.2.1 (on x86_64, RH EL4) and have received the following error
Error in readChar(fid, n = 1) : invalid UTF-8 input in readChar() This is strange because (a) I was able to read in this file successfully in previous versions of R (circa 2005) and (b) it doesn't fail all the time; i.e., other readChar() statements work. When I access the header file using a different piece of software, it gives the value "-1" for the field. What's going on? cheers...
