I might be silly but if I was going to type in dput() then how should I send 
the data over here?

Cut and paste. For example, if I have a dataframe named x and type dput(x), I see

structure(list(a = 1:10), .Names = "a", row.names = c(NA, -10L
), class = "data.frame")

If you run

x <- structure(list(a = 1:10), .Names = "a", row.names = c(NA, -10L
), class = "data.frame")

you'll get a dataframe that looks just like mine. Then you can start to answer questions about it.

I can't do anything with your jpeg to answer your questions about your dataframe.
