Data can be imported from Excel in R in two ways. The first way is to use the read_excel () function from the readxl package, a powerful R library for reading and writing Excel files. This function allows you to read in an Excel file and convert it into a data frame. The second way is to use the read.xls () function from the xlsx package, which allows you to read in an Excel file directly into a data frame without needing to convert it. In addition to these two functions, you can also use the openxlsx package to read Excel files into R. This package has several functions that can be used to read in an Excel file, including read_xlsx (), read_xlsx2 (), and read_xlsx_chunks (). Once the Excel file is imported into R, you can perform any data manipulation or visualisation that you require. You can also save the data frame as a .csv file for further use. In conclusion, importing data from Excel in R is a straightforward process and there are several packages available that make it quick and easy to do so. By using the read_excel (), read.xls (), and openxlsx packages, you can easily read in Excel files into R and perform any necessary data manipulation or visualisation.
