Error while reading csv file in R

Question

I am having some problems in reading a csv file with R.

 x=read.csv(\"LorenzoFerrone.csv\",header=T)

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


        

Answer 1

You can always use the "Latin1" encoding while reading the csv:

 x = read.csv("LorenzoFerrone.csv", fileEncoding = "Latin1", check.names = F)

I am adding check.names = F to avoid replacing spaces by dots within your header.
