R/StatisticsForPREDAFromfile.R

In PREDA: Position Related Data Analysis

### 
### This is a function reading a txt file, with custom format and creating a StatisticsForPREDA object from its content
### 


### The definition of the optional parameter "na.strings" should be indeed strongly recommended by the function manuals in order to avoid mistakes...
