How to read multiple text files in R?

General
1

I have multiple text files in a directory and I want to read them all together to analyse for one common data between all.

I tried doing

files = "~/Library/CloudStorage/GoogleDrive/filename/" file_name_match1,"/", file_name_match2 ,sep ='' "

I get the error saying: unexpected ',' or its says: cannot open file as it is a directory

What the assignment should be doing is to create a character of vectors in a directory

files <- dir("/Users/ro/projects/edw")
files
#>  [1] "chunk_1.csv"   "code"          "docs"          "edw.Rproj"    
#>  [5] "lm_output.txt" "moist.R"       "moist2.R"      "R"            
#>  [9] "README.md"     "Rplot.png"     "sm.data.rds"   "To_Richard"

With that it's possible to further process using regex methods.
