I want to call in files from subdirectories without changing my working
directory within my script. Is that possible? And if so what would be the
simplest way to do that?
for example, if I do setwd("C:/Users/Hello")
but I have files in C:/Users/Hello/Data1 and C:/Users/Hello/Data2, can I
still keep my working directory as C:/Users/Hello/ while calling in files in
Data1 and Data2?
