[R] reading a 40kb csv file in R

[Fairouz Makhlouf]

I am trying to read a matrix of  5000*2000 from a csv
file of real numbers in R using the scan function. I
am getting an error saying that R can not read a
vector > 32KB and it can't allocate a memory of 191 MB
etc. 

What should I do. I am using R1.7.1.

Thanks
