Subject: Reading in a dataset with uneven variable lengths
Suppose I have a text file that I want to read into R like the
following:
X Y
649 699
657 891
714 632
849 727
721 597
791 868
874 652
405 978
733
549
790
This is a simple example -- I could have a huge file with many
columns of unequal lengths.
What is the best way to do it? I can't see how a data frame
can be used. I checked the FAQ and did a web search on the topic
but I came up empty.
