Hi I am really sorry for this probably quite simple question. I am new to R, and I am running a pipeline that has already been made. All I have to do is give the paths for different folders, where the pipeline can find the files with my data.
But every time I try to run the pipeline it returns with the message, that it cannot find the file. And I really don't know why. I have found the path by going to the folder and finding the info about the folder, where the location of this is stated. I copy-paste this into the source command. The path for the folder is: When found with the "info about the folder": /Users/gban/Desktop/Methylation analysis/MethylationDataAnalysis But I think it should be: /Users/gban/Desktop/Methylation analysis/MethylationDataAnalysis/1.Normalization_raw_data/ as it is the folder 1.Normalization_raw_data where my data are in. I have tried both paths but it returns with this message every time: > source('/Users/gban/Desktop/Methylation > analysis/MethylationDataAnalysis/1.Normalization_raw_data/pipelineIlluminaMethylation.main.R') Fejl i file(filename, "r", encoding = encoding) : cannot open the connection In addition: Advarselsbesked: In file(filename, "r", encoding = encoding) : cannot open file '/Users/gban/Desktop/Methylation analysis/MethylationDataAnalysis/1. 450K_pipeline_Nov2012release./SRC/loadMethylumi2.R': No such file or directory Do you have any idea why? I know this is probably more a question of how to type the path on a mac, than it is a question of how R works. But I am really frustrated about this, and thought it might be possible for you to help? Thank you in advance, and again sorry for the quite stupid question.
