R help - May 2008 - Writing intermediate analysis to disk

Is there a way to write and analysis to disk and then reconstruct the whole
thing back into an object.

wavCWT() #wmtsa package

I am running out of memory on my computer and I was wondering if there was a
way to iterate through this process (as it is an iterative process anyway-
it just stores the whole thing to memory).  Or is there a way to set the
scale that I want to look at so that wavCWT can use something other than the
default.  In the documentation it says that the timestep or anything larger
can be used.  My time step is 1/15, but I can not use anything larger like
96 (which is one day of fifteen minute readings).
thanks

Stephen

Hi Stephen,

Have you looked at 'save' and 'load'?

As far as I understand, to really release the memory
you need to close R, so you may try to write a script
(shell script on Unix, batch file on Windows) which
invokes Rcmd to load the data, make an iteration and
save the result, so that R dies between subsequent
calls to Rcmd. I have never used this but I believe
that this shouldn't be too difficult.
