It looks like it is not a UTF-16 text file, although it could be UTF-16 with a different byte order. Look at it with a text editor or Excel or 'od' or 'file' (the latter are Unix utilities) or ask the person you got it from to see what the file contains. Bill Dunlap TIBCO Software wdunlap tibco.co

Try adding fileEncoding="UTF-16" to your read.csv() call. Many Windows programs write UTF-16 files by default. Bill Dunlap TIBCO Software wdunlap tibco.com On Thu, Aug 30, 2018 at 6:05 PM, Spencer Brackett < spbracket...@saintjosephhs.com> wrote: > My apologies... the following is what I receiv

Hello again. I am trying to alter the bin size on a histogram where I have reset the vertical axis to relative frequency, rather than absolute. Beneath is a simple example (not my real data) of this: xvals<-rnorm(1000,0,1) xvals hist(xvals) h<-hist(xvals,plot=F) h h$counts h$counts<-h$counts/

At this point, it seems pretty clear that the issue is in the data file itself. Possibilities are that it is either not a CSV file to begin with or in some exotic encoding (utf-16?). You probably need to look at the file in a text editor to see whether the context makes sense as comma-separate
