Try with load() instead of read.table()
read.table() is for csv, txt... files.
load() is for R files

Dear All,

Can you please suggest me a correct way to load the following R data frame
from the internet and save it to the hard drive?

The following is what I tried:
raceprofiling<-
read.table("http://rss.acs.unt.edu/Rdoc/library/twang/data/raceprofiling.RData";)
save(raceprofiling, file = 'raceprofiling.RData')
However, when I used dim() to check the dataset, I got:
dim(raceprofiling)
[1] 11085  1

The correct dimension should be 5000 and 10.

Many Thanks.
