My question is this: is there a way I can make one of the arguments of the function be a string the user can enter, and then have that be the excel filename? ie,
foo <- function(x,y,NAME){ #make a matrix with x rows and y cols M <- matrix(nrow=x,ncol=y) #write the matrix write.table(M, file = "result.csv",append=TRUE, sep = ",") } I've had a look but I couldn't find help for this particular problem and it's one I'd like to solve, so I can change make several excel files to solve the analysis my actual function does.
