title: Could not find function 'fread' in R 3.4 while reading a big dataset
body: <p>I have installed package "microbenchmark" and then run: <code>library(microbenchmark)</code>. </p>
  
  <p>Now, I am trying to read a csv file, but getting the error: <code>"fread" function not found</code>.  </p>
  
  <pre><code>setwd("C:/Data Analytics/R Assignments")
  library(microbenchmark)
  data &lt;- fread("BigDiamonds.csv") 
  
  Error in
  fread("BigDiamonds.csv") : could not find function "fread"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have been using R 3.4. Could that be the issue?</p>
