I have a huge dataset for which I only want to read in a subset of it. Is it
possible to use read.table to read in only a subset of the data? For example,
something like read.table('~/data.txt', subset = chromosome=='1' )
If not, then why not? This seems to be a feature available in all other
statistical software.
Thanks,
Stacey
