Hi,
yes a bold statement, but I get different behaviour
from 2.6.2 and 2.7.0 in read.table, and I don't find
any documentation in http://cran.r-project.org/src/base/NEWS.
A file like (space delimited):
foo + .
bar - .
This was reverted in 2.7.1
o A field containing just a sign is no longer regarded as numeric
(it was on all platforms in 2.7.0, but not on most in earlier
versions of R). Similarly, '.' is now always non-numeric.
