Hi, For years I've been writing text to the beginning of files with cat(append=F) , then following that text with data written by write.table(append=T). It is now giving me an error message. I'm using R-3.1.2. What gives?
df <- data.frame(x = 1, y = 1:10, z = 10:1) cat(file="junk.txt", sep="", "# An introductory note.\n") write.table(df, file="junk.txt", sep=",", append=T, quote=F, row.names=F, col.names=F) Error in file(file, ifelse(append, "a", "w")) : invalid 'open' argument Thanks, Scott Waichler Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Richland, WA USA ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
