Hi,
Thanks, but I'm not sure I know what you mean by "insert a ENTER after
the last value". Do you mean press enter after I write in the last value?

Hi,
I've completely forgotten how to do R, and it seems I can't even
load simple files correctly.
I have two tab deliminated text files (attached, these were test
files of the larger data files I'm trying to work with) that I am
trying to load into R so that I can merge them. They were
originally excel files but I used "saved as" to reformat to text.
I don't know if it's relevant, but I use a mac.
These are the error messages I get:
> source("/Users/jiayingmei/Desktop/R/Testdate.txt")
Error in eval.with.vis(expr, envir, enclos) : object "Date" not found
Error in source("/Users/jiayingmei/Desktop/R/Testinput.txt") :
/Users/jiayingmei/Desktop/R/Testinput.txt: unexpected symbol at
1: Date France
I'm sure its something simple that is causing this, but I've been
away from R very long, and I've been trying to pick it up today,
sorry if this is a stupid post. I even tried to shift through some
of the guides and manuals out there, but I can't seem to find help
regarding loading a file (or placing them in some directory so
that R can find them). I know I've been taught this most simplest
of things, but obviously I've forgotten just about everything.
