Hi, Does anyone know how to export .RDA file (in R program) to a normal text file (readable by any text editor)? Also, how to export an object in R program into a text file (not .RDA file)? Thank you. Jittima

But an .RDA file is a saved version of one or more R objects of any kind and therefore may contain a data set (stored as a data.frame), a fitted regression model, AND a vector (for example). Maybe do: load("yourfile.RDA") ls() to see what you have in yourfile.RDA and then perhaps do help(write.table) to learn how to write out a matrix or data.frame as a text file if that's what you're trying to do.

attach("file_name.RDA") dump(list=ls(2),file="file_name.R") This creates file file_name.R, containing R commands, executed to produce the contents of the file_name.RDA Data frames and matrices can be stored in ASCII file in tabular form using write.table() You can also consider cat() Jittima Piriyapongsa wrote:> > Hi, > > Does anyone know how to export .RDA file (in R program) to a normal text > file > (readable by any text editor)?
