That message refers to the function (closure) "data", which is a
function in R and that you have not overwritten with a data.frame in
that session. Note how you two versions of the code:
dat1 <- read.csv("Human_Rights_Excel_Data.csv") #converted .xlsx to .csv
and
#data<-readcsv("HumanRightsExcelData")
Just makes sure you use dat1[,2:4] instead, or rename your variable to
suit. Working up a reproducible example in a fresh session (even if
only you can run it) will catch problems like this.
(And in future, when you see that error message think "ah it means I'm
trying to index a function (probably) rather than my data object". )
