Error regarding the use of lm() function (in R)

Question

In the RStudio, I want to perform OLS regression but I don't understand why the following code does not work. 

wage <- read.csv("wage21.csv")

earnings <- wage$EARNINGS    

S <- wage$S    

model1 <- lm(earnings  ̃ 1+S) 

It responds with an error:

Error in parse(text = x, srcfile = src): <text>:6:24: unexpected input

5: 

6: model1 <- lm(earnings  <cc>

                          ^

Traceback:

Answer 1

The correct way of performing the OLS regression is:

fit1 <- lm(EARNINGS ~ 1+S, data = wage)
