Dear R users, This probably a really noob question, but I'm stuck. I'd like to pass some variables from bash to R as strings. I can successfully pass variables using commandArgs(), the problem is that I end up with an array. So, for example:
> Args <- commandArgs(TRUE) > Args [1] "one" "two" "three" Now, it just so happens that "one", "two", "three" are names of columns that I'd like to work with. I'd like to do something like this: > print(summary(lm(Args[1] ~ Args[2]))) But, this doesn't work. The alternative would be to let bash write a number of R-scripts and then rm them when done, but that seems like an unnecessary step. Can this be done?
