Simple R Program (File Reading Examples)

# Load required library


library(readr)

# 1. Read a text file using read.delim()


data1 <- read.delim("data.txt", header = FALSE)
cat("1. Data using read.delim():\n")
print(data1)

# 2. Read a tab-separated text file using read.delim2()


data2 <- read.delim2("data.txt", header = FALSE)
cat("\n2. Data using read.delim2():\n")
print(data2)

# 3. Read first line using read_lines()


line1 <- read_lines("data.txt", n_max = 1)
cat("\n3. First line using read_lines():\n")
print(line1)

# 4. Read two lines using read_lines()


line2 <- read_lines("data.txt", n_max = 2)
cat("\n4. First two lines using read_lines():\n")
print(line2)

# 5. Read whole file using read_file()


whole_file <- read_file("data.txt")
cat("\n5. Entire file using read_file():\n")
print(whole_file)

# 6. Read CSV file using read_csv()


csv1 <- read_csv("data.csv")
cat("\n6. CSV file using read_csv():\n")
print(csv1)

# 7. Read CSV using read.csv()


csv2 <- read.csv("data.csv", header = TRUE)
cat("\n7. CSV using read.csv():\n")
print(csv2)

# 8. Read CSV using read.table()


csv3 <- read.table("data.csv", header = TRUE, sep = ",")
cat("\n8. CSV using read.table():\n")
print(csv3)
