Hello R-users,

I'd like to load data from a CSV-file to a 3-dimensional array. However
the default seems to be 2-dimensional.

No.  that is not the problem.
It would also be ok to load the
data and then convert it to a 3-dimensional structure.

I've been trying:

  dat = read.csv(filename)
  myArr = as.array(dat, dim = c(12,100,3))

However, I get an error message:

Error in `dimnames<-.data.frame`(`*tmp*`, value = list(n)) :
invalid 'dimnames' given for data frame

A dataframe is a list structure while both array and matrix are expecting the first argument to be an atomic vector. Try this (although it is a blind guess because you have not provided the structure of 'dat'

myArr = as.array( unlist(dat), dim = c(12,100,3))

And I don't know how how to set the dimnames.

I would appreciate any help!

Best Wishes
Dave
