Fread Could Use an Argument for col.names #768
Comments
On a similar topic, I did notice an inconsistency between fread and read.csv. When importing a csv file with columns named Address and Address , read.csv will bring it in as Address and Address.1 whereas fread brings it as Address and Address . This could happen, if for instance, the first occurence of Address refers to a billing address and the second refers to a shipping address. |

Is there a plan in the works for fread to includ an argument for col.names similar to the one found in read.table? In my work I receive files whose data starts on the first row, and fread assumes that the column names should be set to what is found in the first row.
