[R] R Help

[Jeffrey Robert Spies]

If you were trying to use the sep="\t" argument, you might have  
encountered an error, as there are three tabs one of the two blank  
lines at the end of your data file.  The default for read.table and  
read.delim (as has been suggested by David and Benilton) is  
whitespace, which consumes the unintended tabs w/o problem.
