Question

I’d like to read a file which contain 2 columns.

2 00001
9 00001
3 00001
12 00001
115 00001
11 00001
12 00001
38 00001

if I use the standard read.table, I end up with something like that :

   V1 V2
1   2  1
2   9  1
3   3  1
4  12  1
5 115  1
6  11  1

Do you have any idea on how I could read this file, and keep the 2nd column as it is?
Thanks

I was confused with the documentation, this is why I asked 😉
Managed to find it:

 read.table("file.txt", colClasses=c("character"))
