Re-importing the data with read.table's strip.white=TRUE argument may be an
easier way to deal with the problem (if the problem is leading or trailing
whitespace).

This function would strip any leading or trailing spaces from a column:

Hi Tara,
It seems that you categorise and count for each category. Could it be that
the method you use puts everything that doesn't match the predefined
categories in Other?
I'm only guessing because without a minimal reproducible example it's
difficult to do anything else.

Hi,
I have a question regarding data importing into R.
When I import my data into R and review the summary, some of my explanatory
variables are being reported as if instead of being one variable, they are two
with the same name. See below for an example;
Behav person Behav dog
