Hi, You can either manually specify colClasses or the asis argument. See ?read.csv for more details.
If you just had those two columns, something like: read.table(header = TRUE, text = " sex group F 1 T 2 ", colClasses = c("character", "integer")) Cheers, Josh read.csv("file.csv", colClasses = c("character", "integer")) On Thu, Sep 5, 2013 at 5:44 AM, Venkata Kirankumar <kiran4u2...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > I have a peculier problem in R-Project that is when my CSV file have one > column with all values as 'F' the R-Project converting this 'F' to FALSE. > Can some one please suggest how to stop this convertion.
