[R-sig-teaching] Read *.xlsx data file into R

[Tim Bates]

your question is vague.

For those who need to read xlsx files, I’ve been having great results with the “gdata” package, and it’s cross platform.

# simple at its easiest
df <- gdata::read.xls(xls = “~/Desktop/194.xlsx”)

# and powerful options also:

df <- gdata::read.xls(xls = ,sheet=,pattern=,na.strings=,method=,perl=)
