Hi all,
I have some trouble reading data from a csv file.
I used command "read.delim("clipboard") to read in the data.
aalpha.data<- read.delim("clipboard")
class(aalpha.data)
[1] "data.frame"
dim(aalpha.data)
[1] 8 25
colnames(aalpha.data)
[1] "X" "V1" "V2" "V3" "V4" "V5" "V6" "V7" "V8" "V9" "V10" "V11" [13] "V12" "V13" "V14" "V15" "V16" "V17" "V18" "V19" "V20" "V21" "V22" "V23" [25] "V24"
plot(aalpha.data[2:14])
Somehow the plot is wrong. Can anyone give me some help? Thanks a lot!!!
Three questions: 1. Why not use read.csv()? 2. What does "somehow" mean to you? (Maybe you're getting a pairs plot?) 3. Have you read 'An Introduction to R', especially Chapter 12? -Peter Ehlers
