Dear R users, I am using the Sweave package and I am doing some MCMC. I have a loop function for my MCMC. Every 100 iterations, I want the number of iterations already done to appear on my screen (but not on the final document). Is that possible ? Usually I can rely on> if (i%%100==0) cat(i, "\n")but not when using Sweave. Thanks for your help, Jimmy [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
Hi Jimmy, You can use message() instead of cat(): if (i%%100==0) message(i) Best, Ista On Tuesday 18 May 2010 1:10:51 pm Jimmy S?derly wrote:> Dear R users, > > I am using the Sweave package and I am doing some MCMC.

Under UNIX I usually write something like
system(paste("echo ' ",...,"'", sep=sep))
where I replace the '...' with whatever I need to show.
This would need some adjustments for non-scalars, though.
