Hi User's,
This might be a simple question but it is giving me a hard time as I
am a
new user.
I installed R version 2.9.2 (2009-08-24)
1. I just copied a short script from Fox (2002) as a practice and
wanted
to save it as Rossi.R.
How?
The system saved it without complain but when I looked at using a
windows
explorer it is not *.R file but only Rossi. Why this is happening?
If you were to include the code, we perhaps could tell you. In its
default mode Windows may be hiding the extension from you. (Or
possibly because R does not postpend file types and (I am now guessing
here about a package I have not used and don't even know if you are)
neither does Rcmdr.)
2. the script and the data files are in the same working directory.
When I
run the following script
Rossi <- read.table('Rossi',header=T)
No path specification. And ??? thought you said it was a script, which
would have been loaded with source()
Rossi[1:5,1:10]
But this suggests you are using it as data. ????
What do you get when your type this:
getwd()
Maybe if you tried (untested)... Nah ... not going to do further
guessing. Read the posting guide and supply the missing elements.
I got the following error messages
Error in file(file, "r") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "r") : cannot open file 'Rossi': No such
file or
directory
Rossi[1:5,1:10]
Error: object 'Rossi' not found
Thank you for your help in advance
Val
