hi ,when i read a lots of files for (i in 1:totnum) { cop_x_data<-read.table(flnm[i],skip=2) if(i==1) {cop_data=cop_x_data} else {cop_data=rbind(cop_data,cop_x_data)} } some of the files are missing . so this loop can not go on .I wonder how can I go on the loop cycle while reading the files just like the command read(unit,err=linenum) in fortran ? thank you . -- TANG Jie [[alternative

hi R user mtdno<-paste("data",1:3,sep="") tyno<-paste("obs",1:5,sep="") flnm<-paste(mtdno,tyno,"_err.dat",sep="") flnm is [1] "data1obs1_err.dat" "data2obs2_err.dat" "data3obs3_err.dat" [4] "data1obs4_err.dat" "data2obs5_err.dat" but actually what i want is data from 1 to 3

for example : I have files with the name "ma01.dat","ma02.dat","ma03.dat","ma04.dat",I want to read the data in these files into one data.frame flnm<-paste("obs",101:114,"_err.dat",sep="") newdata<-read.table(flnm,skip=2) data<-(flnm,skip=2) but the data only contains data from the flnm[1] I also tried as below : for

In R 2.1.1, the default behaviour of scan() was changed to process all C-style escapes, even when a delimiter was specified using the 'sep' argument. A new argument 'allowEscapes' was introduced to turn this processing off. Because read.table() calls scan(), read.table() inherits the new default behaviour of scan() but without a way to turn it off. For example, reading a file

Unfortunately, there seem to be some special characters that interfere with scan recognizing '\n' as

Hello All, This works, results <- read.table("plink.txt",T) while this doesn't. results <- read.table("plink.txt") Make sure your data frame contains columns CHR, BP, and P What does adding the "T" in read.table do?

Dear R developers, I find the format of descriptions of the arguments in the read.table help text slightly inconsistent. For example, the logical arguments comes in seven different formats, more or less explicit about the consequences of a TRUE (or FALSE): 1. check.names logical. If TRUE then the names... 2. blank.lines.skip logical: if TRUE blank lines... 3. flush logical: if TRUE,
