If you do:
getAnywhere('summary.ecdf')
you will see the 'cat' statement that is doing
the printing that is annoying you.
It seems to me that a better definition of the
function would have an argument called something
like 'verbose' that controlled if the 'cat' statement
was executed.
The standard advice is to have a separate print() methods for the
summary() method.
I'm not sure of the best advice for the current
situation.
Use sink(), perhaps via capture.output()?

Dear R Users,
I am trying to suppress the information printed by the ecdf function during
an assignment. Various alternatives have failed me so far:
a=summary(ecdf(rnorm(100)))["1st Qu."]
Empirical CDF: 100 unique values with summary
invisible(a=summary(ecdf(rnorm(100)))["1st Qu."])
Empirical CDF: 100 unique values with summary
(function() invisible(a=summary(ecdf(rnorm(100)))["1st Qu."])) ()
Empirical CDF: 100 unique values with summary
It's the "Empirical CDF: 100 unique values with summary" bit that I
would like to supress. Any way to achieve this result ?
Thanks in advance,
Tolga
