RE: [R] Exporting data

This really depends on what your output is. As previously suggested
save() and write() are excellent suggestions.

for(ii in 1:1000){
out <- cor( x[ii, ], y[ii, ] ) # or whatever 
cat(ii, "\t", out, "\n", append=TRUE, file="output.txt")
}

This method is really not worth it for small simulations but I found
this to be extremely useful with large simulations. 

The output file can act both as log/progress report file and provide
partial results even if your program crashes. More sophisticated method
can be found under connections().

Subject: [R] Exporting data


Dear All

I am a new user to R and so I have a question which I hope you can help
me 
with.

I am running simulations calculating correlation coefficients from
bivariate 
data and I was wondering whether there is a way of exporting 1000
simulation 
results from R to a text file or to another file for further
manipulation. I 
am having difficulty I think because of the text combined in with the 
numerical results.

Many Thanks

Carolyn Marshall

	  Do you want "write(..., append=TRUE)"?

	  If not, please provide a toy problem that shows clearly what you 
thought should work and why it is not satisfactory.  You are more likely 
to get what you want from this list if someone else can pick up your 
scrap of code and try something in 30 seconds than if it takes them 10 
minutes to figure out what you are even asking.  Please also include the 
version of R you are using under which operating system.

hope this helps.  spencer graves

If I understand you, it would seem that the trick is to put the
results of your simulation into a matrix or data frame, possibly
with one row or column per result.  I assume that each result
consists of a few numbers, each representing some variable.  Then
use write.table, write.matrix, or write.
