[R] import .csv file into R

[R. Michael Weylandt]

If you don't need to refer to colnames you should be fine.

If you do need to subset by colnames, you can still do it with `[`,
but you'll have trouble if you want to use the $ trick, unless you use
back-ticks. Don't worry about these things if they aren't troubling
you now though.
