Re: [R] Creating directory under Windows R session

2007-06-20 Thread Henrique Dallazuanna
I have tested in WinXP:

example:
> dir("C:/")
 [1] "Arquivos de programas" "AUTOEXEC.BAT"
 [3] "boot.ini"  "Bootfont.bin"
 [5] "CONFIG.SYS""Debug"
 [7] "debug.log" "Desktop.ini"
 [9] "Dic"   "Documents and Settings"

"Dic" is a folder
 any(dir("C:/")=="Dic")
[1] TRUE


That are right?

That does not work, but fortunately R has file_test() for this purpose.

You said the test was

   > any(dir('your path')=="your folder")

Now, what did you mean by that?  The path "C:/" is not the path to the 
folder named on the RHS.  And I believe you will find your test also gives 
TRUE for AUTOEXEC.BAT, which is not a directory.

Hi all,

How can I create (and check the existence of) a directory in a R session under 
Windows(xp)?

Kind regards,
