[R] How to print a variable with in double quotes

[sailu Yellaboina]

I want to print a variable with in double quotes.
 For example

x = 10 ;
x  ;#prints 10
x ;  #prints x
\x\ ; # Error: unexpected input in \

I want to the out put as'10'  or 10

Thank you

Hi,

Try this,

 x = 10
 noquote(dQuote(x))
 noquote(sQuote(x))

There are lots of ways to do that.  The simplest is to convert x to a 
character value, and it will automatically print that way:


 x - 10
 as.character(x)
[1] 10

A more general way is to use cat(), then you can print whatever you want:

 cat(', x, '\n, sep=)
'10'

The obvious disadvantage is that you need to worry about adding a new 
line at the end (the \n), and the separator between each thing you're 
printing (sep= says put nothing there, the default is a space).

[Dimitris Rizopoulos]

do you mean something like this:

x - 10
as.character(x)


I hope it helps.

Best,
Dimitris
