Hi, How can I, from a single "driver" file, source other files in such a way that I can access their functions with parameters defined in my "driver" file? I wish to do this to avoid creating a single, self-contained but clunky piece of code. I have searched and found functions such as file(), pipe(), open(), found manuals on creating my own packages, etc. but I become increasingly aware that I don't know exactly what I am looking for (that I am a "neophyte"). Help would be appreciated Derek -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/driver-file-tp24171201p24171201.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Your driver file should probably look like:
# setup the parameters
.......
source('file1.r')
source('file.2.r')
...all the rest of your files
