Hi all,
Am trying to read data from a .txt file in such a way that i can access the
column names too. For example, the data in the table.txt file is as below:
Name Weight Height Gender
Anne 150 65 F
Rob 160 68 M
George 180 65 M
Greg 205 69 M
i used the following commands:
data<-scan("table.txt",list("",0,0,0),sep="")
a<-data[[1]]
b<-data[[2]]
c<-data[[3]]
d<-data[[4]]
But this doesn't work because of type mismatch. I want to pull the col
names also into the respective lists. For example i want 'b' to have
(weight,150,160,180,205) so that i can access the col name and also the
induvidual weights. I tried using the read.table method too, but couldn't
get this working. Can someone suggest a way to do this.
Thanks,
Vasu.
