Question
I have a CSV file that I wrote with a Perl script. Files opens fine in Excel or in Simple Text and looks fine. It has 9 rows. However, when I count it with nrow() or dim(), I get 8 rows. This is causing downstream problems. Headers are 'a' to 'j'. Thanks.

Solution
Functions in R can have default values for some parameters. For read.csv:
read.csv(file, header = TRUE, sep = ",", quote = "\"",
dec = ".", fill = TRUE, comment.char = "", ...)
header=TRUE means que first row is assume to be the header of the file. This means, it won't be recognized as data by R. If you read your file with header=FALSE
read.csv(file, header=FALSE)
you will get the 9 rows.
