I am trying to read a csv file using the code;
contol <- read.csv("RBS.csv")
This is the error message I got;
Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "r") :
cannot open file 'RBS.csv', reason 'No such file or directory'
Where was the mistake?

Make sure you have the correct path to the file.

Are you sure the file is in your current working directory? Often people simply put the full path such as "/Users/Name/RBS.csv" Cheers, On Fri, Apr 19, 2013 at 9:30 AM, Gafar Matanmi Oyeyemi <gmoyeyemi@gmail.com>wrote:> I am trying to read a csv file using the code; > contol <- read.csv("RBS.csv") > This is the error message I got; > Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection > In addition: Warning message: > In file(file, "r") : > cannot open file 'RBS.csv', reason 'No such file or directory' > > > Where was the mistake? > > -- > OYEYEMI, Gafar Matanmi (Ph.D) > Senior Lecturer > Department of Statistics > University of Ilorin. > Area of Specialization: Multivariate Analysis, Statistical Quality Control > & Total Quality Management. > Tel: +2348052278655, +2348068241885 > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@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. >-- Charles Determan Integrated Biosciences PhD Student University of Minnesota [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
Dear Gafar Matanmi Oyeyemi, Re:> I am trying to read a csv file using the code; > contol <- read.csv("RBS.csv") > This is the error message I got; > Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection > In addition: Warning message: > In file(file, "r") : > cannot open file 'RBS.csv', reason 'No such file or directory' >I always use "file.choose()" to find the exact path name, e.g. contol <- read.csv(file.choose()) After having found the path name, you can put it in the R source text for future use (provided it remains the same of course).
