I've got read.table to successfully read in my table of three columns. Most of
the time I will have a set number of rows, but sometime that will be variable
and sometimes there will be only be two variables in one row, e.g.
Time Loc1 Loc2
1 22.33 44.55
2 66.77 88.99
3 222.33344.55
4 66.77 88.99
Is there any way to have read.table handle (1) a variable number of rows, and
(2) sometime there are only two variables as shown in Time = 3 above?
Just curious about how to handle this, and if read.table is the right way to go
about or if I should read in all the data and then try to parse it out best I
can.
Thanks again.
