Hi all,
Suppose I want to read a text file with read.table.
It containt lines to be skipped that begins with "!" and "^".
Is there a way to include this two values in the read.table function?
I tried this but doesn't seem to work.
dat <- read.table("mydata.txt", comment.char = c("!","^") , na.strings
= "null", sep = "\t");
Please advice.
