Nice job! The CSV format is part of a larger family of formats, one of which is the tab-delimited text file format, called TSV.

We've got a report in a file called data/extension_hill_mines.tsv. It's a tab-delimited file in text (.tsv) format. To read such files, we need the read.delim() function:

read.delim("data/extension_hill_mines.tsv")

Exercise

Load the report from Nugget Field Mines into memory. Use the data/nugget_field_mines.tsv file and use read.delim(). Assign the result to the nugget_field_mines variable.
