The tables , if read in edit mode are vagely readable but please just do as
Petr and I suggest.
Use the dput command.
If you have the table in an R data.frame all you need to do is use the command
dput(mytable)
I read your two tables into R and did that . Note I called them dat1 & dat2.
table is a command in R and it is best not to use it as a variable name.
Results
1> dput(dat1)
structure(list(X = c("Plot1", "Plot2", "plot3", "plot4"), speciesX = c(1L,
0L, 1L, 0L), speciesY = c(0L, 1L, 0L, 0L), speciesZ = c(1L, 1L,
0L, 1L), speciesXX = c(0L, 0L, 1L, 0L)), .Names = c("X", "speciesX",
"speciesY", "speciesZ", "speciesXX"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA,
-4L))
1> dput(dat2)
structure(list(X = c("SpeciesX", "SpeciesY", "SpeciesXY"), EnviA = c(0.21,
0.1, 0.14), EnviB = c(0.4, 0.15, 0.16), EnviC = c(0.17, 0.18,
0.19)), .Names = c("X", "EnviA", "EnviB", "EnviC"), class = "data.frame",
row.names = c("1",
"2", "3"))
1>
Now you just need to stick variable name and an <- in front of the dput
material and paste it into R
Like THIS
mytable1 <- structure(list(X = c("Plot1", "Plot2", "plot3", "plot4"),
speciesX = c(1L,
0L, 1L, 0L), speciesY = c(0L, 1L, 0L, 0L), speciesZ = c(1L, 1L,
0L, 1L), speciesXX = c(0L, 0L, 1L, 0L)), .Names = c("X", "speciesX",
"speciesY", "speciesZ", "speciesXX"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA,
-4L))
and paste it into R.
Now we probably can get somewhere.

>> Kristi,
