[R] Data import from .csv-file with numeric header

[Henrique Dallazuanna]

Try this:

measurement <- read.table("example.csv", sep = ";",
                                         header = TRUE, check.names = FALSE)
plot(mean(measurement), names(measurement), xaxt = 'n')
axis(1, names(measurement))
