Hello all,
I'm looking for a way to be able to read a text file into R. It's a csv
file but when I do
"txt <-read.table("F00.csv", header=T, sep=",")" It doesn't read the
file properly, and I only get 2 columns. If I open it up in OOc or Excel
it open right with 7 columns.
What I would really like

'count.fields' is often useful in such situations to see how
R's view of the file differs from your own. (It isn't such
a rare occurrence for differences to happen when the file
comes from Excel.)
If I understand properly, you can use
sep='\n'
as part of your alternative plan. But I don't thin
I think he is missing fill=TRUE, which is the default for read.csv but not
read.table. (As Ted Harding implied but as I recall did not spell out.)
If you want to read a file as text, used readLines. You can then extract
the lines you want and use read.table on a textConnection from just those
Hi,
You can read a CSV file using the following way
MyData<-read.csv(file.choose())

Yea So I tried to use the connection but that doesn't work. How can I
read the object back in with read.csv, or at very least get
Is this what you want to do?

+ 5,6,7,8
+ 9,0,1,2
+ 3,4,5,6"

V1 V2 V3 V4
1 1 2 3 4
2 5 6 7 8
3 9 0 1 2
4 3 4 5 6
