I am trying to write data to csv but I am having issues with the separations.
Basically I have some results that I get with R that I copied and pasted into word and then saved as .txt I want to write the results to csv because it's easier to make tables in word (all I would have to do is copy and paste into a table, instead of typing everything out). I am able to write the data to the .csv file but the data is not comma-delimited when I open the file. Everything is written into the first cell. These are the various commands that I have been inputting: write.csv(practice, file.choose(new=T), quote=F, row.names=F) write.csv(practice, file.choose(new=T), sep=",", quote=F, row.names=F) Warning message: In write.csv(practice, file.choose(new = T), sep = ",", quote = F, : attempt to set 'sep' ignored write.table(practice, file = "C:/Users/User/Documents/Documents/Proyectodeafroantillanos/Laterals/practice.csv", sep="\t", quote=F, row.names=F) write.csv(practice, file = "C:/Users/User/Documents/Documents/Proyectodeafroantillanos/Laterals/practice.csv") > write.csv(practice, file = > "C:/Users/User/Documents/Documents/Proyectodeafroantillanos/Laterals/practice.csv", > row.names=FALSE) write.csv(practice, file = "C:/Users/User/Documents/Documents/Proyectodeafroantillanos/Laterals/practice.csv", sep = "\t", row.names=FALSE) Warning message: In write.csv(practice, file = "C:/Users/User/Documents/Documents/Proyectodeafroantillanos/Laterals/practice.csv", : attempt to set 'sep' ignored As you can see, the commands in which I write to csv and set "sep" I get a message saying that attempt to set "sep" ignored. All the other commands work but I don't get a comma-delimited nor a tab-delimited file. Am I doing something wrong?
