Problems with createSiberObject function

[melizaantunes]

Hello, I work with R, Rstudio interface, I do ecology modeling. Usually I use SIMMR package and it does the trick, except this time I'd like to use SIBER alongside SIMMR, so I can build those ellipsis. I installed it, ran the example model and it worked out just fine. However, when I try to import my data and try to run it, I get the following:

library(SIBER)

import my dataset in .txt format

library(readr) dados2 <- read_csv("dados2.txt") View(dados2) mydata <- dados2 siber_example <- createSiberObject(mydata) Error in createSiberObject(mydata) : The header names in your data file must match c("iso1", "iso2", "group", "community") exactly

I already checked for the name on top, with quotes, just like it demands me to, and even still, I cant get it to run, I've tried botho .csv and .txt, and get the same error on both

Thanks a lot !!!

hi

my guess is that the object called mydata being created by read_csv() is not a data.frame type object (or possibly matrix type will work too im not quite sure without checking the code), and that its column names are not named as per the error message. When i use read.csv() i have to include read.csv( “file_name.csv", header = TRUE).

try

str(mydata)

to check what object type it is and that the the columns are appropriately named

best wishes

andrew

Hi Andrew,

Actually, my file would be of type .xlsx. I can import the dataset normally, the table is no longer unconfigured, however, even then, the same header name error appears. When I tried to use the header = TRUE option, the following message appears:

Error in read_excel ("C: / Users / Maria Eliza / Desktop / mydates.xlsx", header = TRUE): unused argument (header = TRUE)

I'm sending a photo of my data. Would it be better for me to save in .csv? is that when I put this option, my excel misconfigures the data. Or would it be better in txt? Thank you for your help

I would do exactly as the examples do unless I was comfortable with managing data types in R.
