Sorry, my mistake. So I could still use read.table and should I try using a .txt version of the file to avoid the silent changes you described? Also, when I tried to simply this process by downloading the dataset onto RStudio opposed to R (Gui) I received the following... library(readxl)> GBM_protein_expression <- read_excel("C:/Users/Spencer/Desktop/GBMprotein_expression.csv") Error: Can't establish that the input is either xls or xlsx.> View(GBM_protein_expression)Error in View : object 'GBM_protein_expression' not found Error in gzfile(file, mode) : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning message: In gzfile(file, mode) : cannot open compressed file 'C:/Users/Spencer/AppData/Local/Temp/RtmpQNQrMh/input147c61fc5b52.rds', probable reason 'No such file or directory'> library(readxl) > GBM_protein_expression <-read_excel("C:/Users/Spencer/Desktop/GBM_protein_ expression.xlsx") readxl works best with a newer version of the tibble package.

Message displays once per session.> View(GBM_protein_expression)Is this perhaps the result of lack of preview (which I did not complete at the time I hit import as the preview failed to load), or the fact that the excel file itself contains no numerical data, but only TRUE or FALSE entries?

this is wrong because the file is a csv file. read_excel is designed
for xls files.
GBM_protein_expression <- read_excel("C:/Users/Spencer/Desktop/GBM
protein_expression.csv")
How did you get a csv? it downloads as tsv.
the statement you should use is in base, no library() statement is needed.
GBM_protein_expression <- read.delim("C:/Users/Spencer/Desktop/GBM
protein_expression.csv")
read.delim is the same as read.csv except that it sets the sep
argument to "\t".

Does this help Spencer? The read.delim() function assumes a tab character by
default, but I specifically included it using the read.csv function. The
downloaded file is NOT an Excel file so this should help.
GBM_protein_expression <- read.csv("C:/Users/Spencer/Desktop/GBM
protein_expression.tsv", sep=?\t?)
