error using scan

Hi Sharai,
I think scan() needs the extension as well. Have you tried

scan("C:/prueba.txt")

(this assumes that prueba.txt resides in your c-root dir)
hth.

Hi,
I hope you are fine. I am trying to use scan to open a file "prueba"
extension txt. I am using the scan command as

scan("C:/prueba")
and I get the following error:

Error in file(file, "r") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "r") : cannot open file 'prueba': No such file or directory
I did the following, however I can not fix it. I really appreciate any help.
Thank you.
