read.data? without separator
I have a problem with 'read.data' also in that I don't see that as a function in the 'base'; I assume you meant read.table. Also you did not indicate is all the lines were the same length. Here is a solution to return a list is each character broken out separately.
x <- readLines(textConnection("# comment
+ 1?0001010101 + 101010??1010"))
closeAllConnections() # split lines 2-n into a list of separate characters result <- lapply(x[-1], function(.line) strsplit(.line, '')[[1]]) result
[[1]] [1] "1" "?" "0" "0" "0" "1" "0" "1" "0" "1" "0" "1" [[2]] [1] "1" "0" "1" "0" "1" "0" "?" "?" "1" "0" "1" "0"

Hello, I have a problem with read.data. For example I have a file # comment 1?0001010101 101010??1010 with comment on first line and data layout without separator. How I could read data that each character\sign was in another column. It is trivial probably, but I have no idea for it.
