read_rdf(iFile, rdf = TRUE)

Arguments

iFile

The input rdf file that will be read into R.

rdf

Functions

  • read.rdf2: Deprecated version of read.rdf()

Details

read.rdf()uses data.table::fread() to read in the file, which provides performance benefits as compared to earlier versions of the function.

read.rdf2() is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
