fread in R imports a large .csv file as a data frame with one row
问题 I'm importing a large .csv file into R (about 0.5 million rows), so I've been trying to use fread() from the data.table package as a faster alternative to read.table() and read.csv(). However, fread() returns a data frame with all of the data from the rows inside one row, even though it has the correct number of columns. I found a bug report from 2013 showing this is related to the integer64 data class: http://r-forge.r-project.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2786&group_id=240&atid=975
