read_tsv
Where you use read_csv() to easily read in CSV files, you use read_tsv() to easily read in TSV files. TSV is short for tab-separated values.
This time, the potatoes data comes in the form of a tab-separated values file; potatoes.txt (view) is available in your workspace. In contrast to potatoes.csv, this file does not contain columns names in the first row, though.
There's a vector properties that you can use to specify these column names manually.
