I can help you write a script to read the CSV file and create a DataFrame with the desired structure. Here is a Python solution using pandas library: import pandas as pd def read_csv(file_path): data = [] with open(file_path, 'r') as f: lines = f.readlines() if len(lines[0].strip().split('|')) > 6: # If the first line has more than 6 fields, skip it del lines[0] for line in lines[1:]: values = [x.strip() for x in line.

Merging Data Tables in R: A Comparative Analysis of Methods When working with data tables in R, it’s common to encounter situations where you need to merge two or more tables based on a common column.
