Hi,

I am trying to the data from
https://online.stat.psu.edu/onlinecourses/sites/stat501/files/ch15/employee.txt
without any success. Below is the error I am getting:

> read.delim('https://online.stat.psu.edu/onlinecourses/sites/stat501/files/ch15/employee.txt')

Error in make.names(col.names, unique = TRUE) :

  invalid multibyte string at '<ff><fe>t'

In addition: Warning messages:

1: In read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote,  :

  line 1 appears to contain embedded nulls

2: In read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote,  :

  line 2 appears to contain embedded nulls

3: In read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote,  :

  line 3 appears to contain embedded nulls

4: In read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote,  :

  line 4 appears to contain embedded nulls

5: In read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote,  :

  line 5 appears to contain embedded nulls

Is there any way to read this data directly onto R?

Thanks for your time
