[R] Accessing files from Linux Server

[Rui Barradas]

Hello,

There are functions in base R to access files, you will need an external 
package only for special file types (such as, for instance, .xls or JSON).

At an R prompt type

?read.table
?readLines
?file
?scan

and start from there. I suggest you start with the first, it's the most 
used of all. And tghe first of those pages have links to their companion 
'write' versions.

There are also packages to read from the web.

Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas
