It is easy to import a CSV file in R but it is quite difficult to import multiple CSV files in R simultaneously.How we can do that?

For importing multiple CSV file we can use base R package and do the following

files = list.files(pattern="*.csv")

allfiles = lapply(files, read.delim)

Also by importing tidyverse, it can speed up importing the data twice compared to base R package

library(data.table)

tbl_fread <-

list.files(pattern = "*.csv") %>%

map_df(~fread(.))
