OK I see how to remove the line numbers[1] etc by using cat instead of
print, but cannot work out how to remove the column names from the data
frame output

I want to output a text file assembeld from various soruces within r (

the output should be formatted line 1 "text comment"
line 2:n selected
column names from data frame
line n+1on lines
of selected columns from data frame one row at a time
I have the following code, but cannot see how to remove the line
numbers and omit column names form the line by line data frame output
col1<-c(2,45,67)
col2<-c("a","B","C")
col3<-c(234,44,566)
mydf<-as.data.frame(cbind(col1,col2,col3))
n<-ncol(mydf)
nr<-nrow(mydf)
sink("test.txt")
print("I will be including text of various sorts in this file so
cannot use print table or similar command")
for (i in 1:n){
print(colnames(mydf[i]),quote=F) }
for (j in 1:nr){
print(mydf[j,c(2:n)],quote=F,row.names=F)}
sink()
The test.txt contains:
[1] "I will be including text of various sorts in this file so cannot
use print table or similar command"
[1] col1
[1] col2
[1] col3
col2 col3
a 234
col2 col3
B 44
col2 col3
C 566
what I would like in test.txt is:
"I will be including text of various sorts in this file so cannot use
print table or similar command"
col1
col2
col3
a 234
B 44
C 566
Many thanks
