Hello everyone Can you please teach me how to save my homework as .R file? I write my code in RGui. When I tried to save my work, the RGui only allows me to save it as .RData. Is there any difference between .R and .RData? By the way, after I save my work as .RData, I cannot reopen it. when I open it, only one message comes out as following: "ARGUMENT_ignored_." -- View this message in context: r.789695.n4.nabble.com/How-to-save-R-file-into-specific-type-tp3009879p3009879.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
You should probably ask your professor to be certain, but I would suggest writing your code in a text editor and saving it with the .R extension. Saving a .RData file using save() [you didn't tell us what you did] saves the objects but not the code used to generate them. An .RData file can be opened using load().

You can also save named functions with save() and then bring back in with load(). -- David.> > I write my code in RGui.
