Incomplete final line' warning when trying to read a .csv file into R?

Question

I'm trying to read a .csv file into R and upon using this formula: pheasant<-read.table(file.choose(),header=TRUE,sep=",")I get this warning message: "incomplete final line found by readTableHeader on 'C:\\Documents and Settings..."There are a couple of things I thought may have caused this warning, but unfortunately I don't know enough about R to diagnose the problem myself so I thought I'd post here in the hope someone else can diagnose it for me! - the .csv file was originally an Excel file, which I saved into .csv format- the file comprises three columns of data- each data column is of a differing length, i.e. there are a different number of values in each column- I want to compare the means (using t-test or equivalent depending on normal / not normal distribution) of two of the columns at a time, so for example, t-test between column 1 values and column 2 values, then a t-test of column 1 and column 3 values, etc.Any help or suggestions would be seriously appreciated!

Answer 1

Your R code is good, but your table is not. You maybe have some strange space at the end of your table, or you don't have the new line.
