Hi All, I am dealing with a large data set which translates in to a sparse matrix, I want to load this data that is spread in approximately 17000+ files each defining a row and each file has variable number of records that come with its column number and the value that they store.
I wish to load this data in memory from these files one by one. Is there anyway I can do this in R, before I start processing? I am sure this is not the first time R or the community is confronted with this kind of a problem but I could not find the documentation for loading data in to sparse matrix I found quite a few packages for sparse matrix but they all were concentrating on how to do various operations with the matrix once the matrix is loaded. I need to first load the data in the system before I can think about analysing. Regards, Atul.
