Hello,
I have a file that looks like this:
Date,Hour,DA_DMD,DMD,DA_RTP,RTP,,
1/1/2006,1,3393.9,3412,76.65,105.04,,
1/1/2006,2,3173.3,3202,69.20,67.67,,
1/1/2006,3,3040.0,3051,69.20,77.67,,
1/1/2006,4,2998.2,2979,67.32,69.10,,
1/1/2006,5,3005.8,2958,65.20,68.34,,
where the ',' is the separator and I tried to read it into R, but...
> y <- read.csv("Data/Data_tmp.csv", header = FALSE, skip = 1,
+ colClasses = c("character", "int", rep("double", 4)),
+ col.names = c("Date","Hour","DA_DMD","DMD","DA_RTP", "RTP"),
+ flush = TRUE)
Error in read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote, :
more columns than column names
count.fields() gives me 8 fields per line, so I tried other variations,
like the following, with two fictitious extra fields, but...
> y <- read.csv("Data/Data_tmp.csv", header = FALSE, skip = 1,
+ colClasses = c("character", "int", rep("double", 6)),
+ col.names = c("Date","Hour","DA_DMD","DMD","DA_RTP",
+ "RTP", "XXX", "YYY"))
Error in methods::as(data[[i]], colClasses[i]) :
no method or default for coercing "character" to "int"
Could anybody please tell me what I am doing wrong and how I could read
my data into R?
Thanks in advance,
Giovanni
