r - How to solve the issue of fread txt with EOF? -
i trying read climate station info ftp://ftp.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/ghcn/daily/ghcnd-stations.txt. however, since first row not populated (last 2 cols missing) , 5th column contains spaces, unable complete reading with:
fread('ftp://ftp.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/ghcn/daily/ghcnd-stations.txt',sep=)
it returns error message:
expected sep (' ') new line, eof (or other non printing character) ends field 5 when detecting types point 0: age00135039 35.7297 0.6500 50.0 oran-hopital militaire
