hello,
I have a problem running a R script actually I'm using source() and sink()
and it doesn't work
source("T:/agents/melyakhlifi/R/essai_rep.r")
to execute a file and the file contain
sink("T:/agents/melyakhlifi/R/sortie.html")
cat("<html><body><pre>\n")
matrix.merge2
cat("</pre></body></html>\n")
sink()
I don't understand why when I execute just the syntax with sink() it work
but in using source() it doesn't work
thanks

I don't know what is causing your problem, But if you goal is to produce html then you may want to look at the R2HTML package. It may do what you want without using sink.

You don't say what is going wrong, but I suspect your problem is that
you're not printing matrix.merge2. Listing a variable name on a line by
itself only causes it to be printed when you're typing at the console,
not when it's a line in a function or a line sourced from a file. You
need to call print() explicitly in those cases.
