Hello, I am experiencing a problem in reading a database in Russian. The problem appears when it comes to char variables. I have already tried changing the encoding, i.e.
options(encoding="UTF-8") and options(encoding="KOI8-R") but every time there appear to be something unreadable in the data frame, like \x82\xa2\xae\xef etc. Could you please answer whether it is possible to operate with Russian strings in R, and, if yes, how to get to do that. Thank you, in advance. Olga. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Russian-language-in-R-tp3521206p3521206.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
