Hi, I am struggling with using R CMD BATCH command. Kindly suggest solution to the following problem. I have a function named CinC with accept two input parameters. This can be shown as: CinC <- function(start, end) where start and end both are character strings. Please suggest me how can I run this function using command R CMD BATCH. Currently I am trying to do like this -> R CMD BATCH c:/tt/CinC.r c:/tt/h.Rout -"20070416 08:41" -"20070416 10:33" What is wrong/incorrect with it? Your suggestions are important to me. Kindly reply. Thanks in advance. Regards Divya Sarthi [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Look at ?commandArgs ?Startup Your R invokation should look like this C:\> R CMD BATCH c:/tt/CinC.r c:/tt/h.Rout --args "20070416 08:41" "20070416 10:33" And you should add something like this in your R code command.args<-commandArgs(trailingOnly=TRUE) CinC(command.args[1],command.args[2]) -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Running-R-function-as-a-Batch-process-tf3764048.html#a10640433 Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Hi, There are many clues in the help. First I created the file c:\sumfunction.R x<-as.numeric(commandArgs()[-1:-4] ) print(x) addtogether<-function(x,y){SUM<-x+y;print(SUM)} addtogether(x[1],x[2]) Then at the command line in Windows I enter R --vanilla --slave --args 7 10 <c:\sumfunction.R> c:\logout.txt Regards Alex -----Original Message----- From: r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch [mailto:r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch] On Behalf Of d. sarthi maheshwari Sent: May 16, 2007 8:29 AM To: r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch Subject: [R] Running R function as a Batch process Hi, I am struggling with using R CMD BATCH command.
