[R] Removing null vector that is not in .csv file data

Hi,

you could try going in your spreadsheet and delete columns/rows that are 
seemingly empty (delete a lot a of them), then try again. Sometimes in your 
spreadsheet you enter values then you delete them. This leaves the cells 
"active" and when you save the csv file, it writes some commas with nothing 
between them to account for those "active" cells. If you delete the 
rows/columns with possible active cells (which you can't know because they 
are empty, hence the need to delete a lot of them) you remove them from the 
data and the csv file doesn't have to account for those empty cells.

I hope this helps for future files!

Cheers 

JM
