write.table has a problem when the data frame has columns of mode numeric
and complex. All columns are written in complex mode. If other modes are
present the problem does not occur.
> write.table(data.frame(x = 1:4, y = 1:4 + 1i), file = "test")
> read.table("test")
x y
1 1+0i 1+1i
2 2+0i 2+1i
3 3+0i 3+1i
4 4+0i 4+1i
> write.table(data.frame(x = 1:4, y = 1:4 + 1i, z = "a"), file =
"test")
> read.table("test")
x y z
1 1 1+1i a
