为什么fread插入回车符(\ r)到data.table?

标签: r csv data.table fread

我正在使用Windows 10计算机上的data.table::fread从.csv文件中读取数据。数据通过read.csv正确读入;但是,当我使用fread读取数据时,结果data.table的每一行中的所有最终列都以\r结尾,可能表示回车。这会导致数字字段被赋予字符数据类型。 (而不是数字文字4.53,行结尾单元格将包含字符文字4.53\r。)

为什么会出现这个错误?有没有办法通过fread的函数调用直接解决这个问题?

使用verbose = TRUE参数时,我得到以下内容

File opened, filesize is 0.000001 GB.
Memory mapping ... ok
Detected eol as \n only (no \r afterwards), the UNIX and Mac standard.
Positioned on line 1 after skip or autostart
This line is the autostart and not blank so searching up for the last non-blank ... line 1

答案 0 :(得分:6)

如果您的文件看起来像x="a\n1\r\n2\r\n",那么fread(x)会给出所描述的结果:

     a
1: 1\r
2: 2\r

这是因为行尾指示符在行之间不一致。

我听说过其他人正在发生这种情况,但我不知道它来自何处,或者是否有更好的解决方法,而不是“修复”文件,可能是使用命令行工具。
