Dear all:
I have been thinking to import below one data file (.txt)into R by read.table(..,skip=1, header=T). But How can I deal with the repeated rows of TABLE NO.1 and names of data variables in the middle of this data file. The similar block will be repeated 100 times, here only show 4 of them and within each block, data records also can vary, here only paste 4 rows for example. I appreciate your consideration and help in this holiday season. Happy Holiday!
