Issue when importing dataset: `Error in scan(…): line 1 did not have 145 elements`

Question

I\'m trying to import my dataset in R using read.table():

Dataset.df <- read.table(\"C:\\\\dataset.txt\", header=TRUE)

But

Answer 1

Hash # symbol creating this error, if you can remove the # from the start of the column name, it could fix the problem.

Basically, when the column name starts with # in between rows, read.table() will recognise as a starting point for that row.
