I suggest two commands to diagnose
the problem:

getwd()  # show the working directory of R

This is navigation tool #17.

list.files()  # show the files in the working directory

You can copy and paste file names to avoid
typing mistakes.  (Not that I've ever made any.)

HI All,

I am trying to load an CSV file into the R project. the code for the same
is:
mydata<- read.csv("Jan-May Data.csv", header=TRUE)

however with this I am getting the below error message:
/*Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "rt") :
   cannot open file 'Jan-May Data.csv': No such file or directory*/

I am under the impression that R automatically pulls the data from the
working directory and we do not have to add the location where the file is
saved. Please let me know if my understanding is correct and help on the
error as well.

Please note the csv file is already saved in the WD.
Thank you, Shivi
