Re: [R] Loading Data to R

2008-02-11 Thread Gregory Warnes
On Microsoft Windows systems, it may be more convenient to install  
and use the "XLSReadWRite" packge.  For non-windows systems, the  
gdata package provides this function, but requires perl to be present.

Re: [R] Loading Data to R

2008-02-09 Thread John Kane
Have a look at the R Data Import/Export manual on the
R website.  

My simple-minded approach is simply to save the data
as a csv file and read it in using read.table or
read.csv
