[R] Need HELP: how find and use a csv file?

[Sarah Goslee]

You don't actually have to post more than once. Really.

skatter <- read.table(file.choose(), header=TRUE, sep=";")

or

skatter <- read.table(""/Users/kama/Desktop/skatter.csv", header=TRUE, sep=";")

or whatever the actual path to the file is.

As a new user of R, you should read the Introduction to R that came
with R, and also the R-help posting guide. Both are full of useful
information.
