How to automatically set R to read the files from a specific location

I may well be wrong, but I believe you will need to give more info on
where the files are located (e.g. on a remote server, on a website, a
local machine, ...), whether they consist only of data or whether
there are packages with functions that need to be used, etc.

A better approach might be to combine data and files into a package,
put the package where you all have access, and then give your prof the
code to download it from there.

Others may have better ideas, so do wait for more responses.

Dear friends,

I am working on an assignment using R, and I would like to set my R code so
that R automatically recognizes where the files that need to be read are
without having to use the absolute path?
The idea is that when I send my .R script and my professor receives it, he
can just execute the code without running into any issues.

Thanks, beforehand, for your valuable feedback.

Cheers,
Paul
