Hi, i downloaded R version 2.15.0 (2012-03-30) Platform: i386-pc-mingw32/i386 (32-bit) + Deducer + R studio. I am facing few problem : 1- I don't know where to find the manual you talked about so i can read it and get help from it. 2- what is console and where I can find it to use it? 3- what is the directory? and where i can find it? the reason for that question is i downloaded the table that you gave on the assignment on my desktop under the name "test" but when i try to open it with R they way you did in the video by using read.table it gave me Error type like below:> data<- read.table("test.txt")Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning message: In file(file, "rt") : cannot open file 'test.txt': No such file or directory i went to discussion board try to use it I couldn't because there is no "new post" button or any similar thing 4- you talk about the material as if we know the orders all ready, i don't think every one know that , example i went to a friend he is an IT asking him about the orders how we printed he gave me different things that the one you use in videos and he does not have any ideas about what are you talking about. so is there any book i can be refered to have the orders and what it means. by the way the navigation in the coarse is not easy at all. you need a video to explain where and how to use this website. i spend the entire week looking for such things and i had to print the questions in google to find answers other wise i will miss the first quiz , plus i literally counted things manually in the assignment you gave.

RStudio has its own help forum.> I am facing few problem : > 1- I don't know where to find the manual you talked about so i can read it and get help from it.Who is "you"? We are about 20,00 readers of R help and most of us do not have RStudio. The "manual" might be "The Introduction to R" (TITR) or it might be something else. On my R64.app GUI I just click on "R Help" item in the Help-menu and I get a browser page that has a variety of Manuals including TITR.> 2- what is console and where I can find it to use it?It's what you are looking at when R is running in interactive mode.> 3- what is the directory? and where i can find it? the reason for that question is i downloaded the table that you gave on the assignment on my desktop under the name "test" but when i try to open it with R they way you did in the video by using read.table it gave me Error type like below: >> data<- read.table("test.txt") > > Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection > In addition: Warning message: > In file(file, "rt") : > cannot open file 'test.txt': No such file or directory > > i went to discussion boardWhere?> try to use it I couldn't because there is no "new post" button or any similar thingThis? http://support.rstudio.org/> 4- you talk about the material as if we know the orders all ready, i don't think every one know that , example i went to a friend he is an IT asking him about the orders how we printed he gave me different things that the one you use in videos and he does not have any ideas about what are you talking about. so is there any book i can be refered to have the orders and what it means.I'm thinking there may be a language difficulty.

Hello, You've posted in the wrong mailing list. 1. You've downloaded R version 2.15.0 but the current version is 3.0.2. You should update to the current version. 2. As for the manual, in your directory of R, probably C:\PROGRA~1\R you will find a folder named 'doc\manual'. The manual you are looking for is the PDF file R-intro.pdf. As for the other questions they should be asked to your teacher, not to R-Help. But the error message you got means R (RGui ?) cannot find the file test.txt is the current directory. To see the current directory and the files there, at the R prompt type getwd() list.files() # all files list.files(pattern = "*.txt") If it's RGui that you are using, in the File menu, there's an option Change dir. Use it to navigate to the directory where test.txt is. (Assuming you have that file on disk, which I don't really believe you do.) Hope this helps, Rui Barradas Em 29-09-2013 19:57, Mrwan Sweedan escreveu:> Hi, > i downloaded R version 2.15.0 (2012-03-30) Platform: i386-pc-mingw32/i386 (32-bit) + Deducer + R studio. > I am facing few problem : > 1- I don't know where to find the manual you talked about so i can read it and get help from it. > 2- what is console and where I can find it to use it? > 3- what is the directory? and where i can find it? the reason for that question is i downloaded the table that you gave on the assignment on my desktop under the name "test" but when i try to open it with R they way you did in the video by using read.table it gave me Error type like below: >> data<- read.table("test.txt") > > Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection > In addition: Warning message: > In file(file, "rt") : > cannot open file 'test.txt': No such file or directory > > i went to discussion board try to use it I couldn't because there is no "new post" button or any similar thing > 4- you talk about the material as if we know the orders all ready, i don't think every one know that , example i went to a friend he is an IT asking him about the orders how we printed he gave me different things that the one you use in videos and he does not have any ideas about what are you talking about. so is there any book i can be refered to have the orders and what it means. > by the way the navigation in the coarse is not easy at all. you need a video to explain where and how to use this website. > > i spend the entire week looking for such things and i had to print the questions in google to find answers other wise i will miss the first quiz , plus i literally counted things manually in the assignment you gave. > > > MARWAN SWEEDAN > 369-B 3rd st., #528 > San Rafael, CA 94901 > (408)310-0096 > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. >
