Hi all, I am just starting with R and I have come across a problem which I guess it is easy to solve. I am reading a table with read.table function. This table contains chars which seem to be problematic when reading them such as "'" and "#", if I remove these characters fromt the table by hand the problem disappears. Otherwise, the whole table is not read, since reading stops at the problematic tuple. I have been looking in the ?read.table manual but have not found anything. Is there any option to make R not interpret these characters?
