【w1】读取文件

• file：open a connection to a file
• gzfile: “.gz” 压缩文件
• bzfile: ".bz"压缩文件
• url：网页链接

con <- file("foo.txt", "r")
data <- read.csv(con)
close(con)

等同于

data <- read.csv("foo.txt")

因此，在上种情况下，不需要用到connection函数读取

读取行时

> con <- gzfile("words.gz")
> x <- readLines(con, 10)
> x
 [1] "1080" "10-point" "10th" "11-point"
 [5] "12-point" "16-point" "18-point" "1st"
 [9] "2" "20-point"

writeLines takes a character vector and writes each element one line at a time to a text file.

读取网页时

## This might take time
con <- url("http://www.jhsph.e
