Hi there, I have some problems reading in a Thai text. Some of the newlines are skipped. (see the contents of my file below) R>count.fields ("my.txt", sep='\n', quote="") [1] 1 1 1 Three lines with one item each, right? R> scan("my.txt", what="", sep="\t", quote="") Read 2 items [1] "?\x83???\x88

Just wondering how come read.table lets you specify fill=TRUE for ragged arrays, but so far as I can tell, no equivalent for write.table? Not a big deal, since I'm perfectly comfortable w/ write and scan and the other file I/O goodies. "A foolish inconsistency..." and all that. Carl

Suppose, I have a file "data1" containing: 450 390 467 654 30 542 334 432 421 357 497 493 550 549 467 575 578 342 446 547 534 495 979 479 I can read this file with: scan("data1") Read 24 items [1] 450 390 467 654 30 542 334 432 421 357 497 493 550 549 467 575 578 342 446 [20] 547 534 495 979 479

Dear all, Does everyone know how to change the line numbers of scan()? For example, > scan(n = 3) 1: 4 2: 6 3: 9 Read 3 items [1] 4 6 9 I just want to change the line numbers 1, 2, and 3 to, say a, b, and c that look like this: > scan(n = 3) a: 4 b: 6 c: 9 Read 3 items [1] 4 6 9 Any help will be appreciated.

Hi all, I am running 64-bit R 2.15.0 on windows 7. I am trying to use read.delim to read from a file that has 2-byte unicode (CJK) characters.

Is it possible to parallel scan a large file into a character vector in 1M chunks using scan() with the "doMC" package? Furthermore, can I specify the tasks for each child? i.e. I'm working on a Linux box with 8 cores and would like to scan in 8M records at time (all 8 cores scan 1M records at a time) from a file with 40M records total. file <-

I am wondering if there is any function in R that is similar to the "scan" function in SAS. I have a data.frame which has two columns as the following: one two 1 2 3 4 5 6 I used the "paste" function to create the third column: three <- paste(one,'-',two,sep="") so the data.frame is like this now: one two three 1 2 1-2 3

I am wondering why when I try to input data from the first site listed below into R using the scan() function, a different page is read in instead (the second site listed): http://data.visionappraisal.com/CanterburyCT/parcel.asp?pid=1242 http://www.visionappraisal.com/databases/ I am wondering if this is an issue with R or something in the source code of the web page that I am not familiar

I need to import a large number of simple, space-delimited text files with a few columns of data each. The one quirk is that some rows are missing data and some contain junk text at the end of each line. A typical file might look like: a b c d 1 2 3 x 4 5 6 7 8 9 x 1 2 3 x c c 4 5 6 x 7 8 9 x I'm trying to avoid having to pre-process the text files, as they all sit on an ftp site that I
