R is warning you that the file may be incomplete. In Unix, text files are supposed to always end with a newline. Windows programs often omit it on the last line. So on Unix, R is probably right to warn you, but it could well be a false positive if you're on Windows. > Could you please tell me why? and how can I deal with missing value when I > read this file? How you deal with missing values really depends on what you want to do with the data. There's no general answer.
