I am trying to load my data table in R, but its giving me some trouble. The data was forwarded to me by somebody and its in (.sav) format. I downloaded the foreign package to make sure that it would recognize this extension, but it doesn't seem like the problem is with the extension. It might be the file. I am getting the following error: "Warning message: In read.table("NIUA_final_dataset.sav") : incomplete final line found by readTableHeader on 'NIUA_final_dataset.sav'" This is the command that I typed: dataset <- read.table("NIUA_final_dataset.sav") I also typed the "load" command and it gave me an error too.
