R help - Feb 2024 - Trouble reading a UTF-16LE file

The earlier post had an attached text file that did not go through.
I hope this link works. I tested it with a coworker, but that is no guarantee.

Regards,

Try this:

> x <- file("C:\\Users\\Jim\\Downloads\\PV2-ch2 - R_Help.ANA",+ 
encoding = "UTF-16")> y <- readLines(x)> head(y)[1]
"1\t36,74\t0"      "2\t269,02\t-44"  
"1\t326,62\t29"    "2\t354,52\t24"
[5] "8\t390,75\t1838"  "2\t395,11\t-1053">
