Could you explain what you mean by "has no feature"? I cannot figure out
what this phrase means in relation to the data set you are trying to work
with.

What kind of text file did you save? Tab delimited? Space Delimited? Comma
Seperated Value (CSV)? Each of these formats affects the arguments you will
have to pass to read.table() in order for the function to read the data
correctly.
Additionally, you may want to take a look at the "R Data Import/Export"
manual:
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-data.html
Since you are new to R, this will help familiarize you with some of the ways
data can be imported.
Good luck and welcome to the community!
