Haha no, TextWrangler.
And that was definitely it...I think what was happening is that when I
opened the text version of the book it opened in Notepad, which was
probably opened the txt file in RTF. Then I copied and pasted the function
code into TextWrangler and didn't even think about Smart Quotes. So I used
the "Straighten Quote" feature. It got through all the way to the last line
where I got an unexpected string error:
Error in source("/Documents/score.txt") :
/Documents/score.txt:13:25: unexpected INCOMPLETE_STRING
32: return(scores.df)
33: }
Is there a debug version I could be running or something that lists more
descriptive error explanations? That way I don't have to bother you guys
and embarrass myself so. :-)
Thank you for your help! I appreciate it.
