There are many refs you can follow up on Sweave online -- here's one: http://www.stat.uni-muenchen.de/~leisch/Sweave/ HTH, -steve -- Steve Lianoglou Graduate Student: Computational Systems Biology ?| Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center ?| Weill Medical College of Cornell University Contact Info: http://cbio.mskcc.org/~lianos/contact
Sweave. Or ODFWeave, if Sweave/LaTeX are too much overhead. But really, it depends on what kind of report output you need to deliver. Printed? HTML? PDF?

I like knitr. IMHO Yihui really came up with a killer package there: http://yihui.github.com/knitr/ On 07.12.2011 19:19, Sarah Goslee wrote:> Sweave. > > Or ODFWeave, if Sweave/LaTeX are too much overhead. > > But really, it depends on what kind of report output you need to > deliver.

For simple reports in a single table you don't need Sweave; for more complex ones it would make your life easier. My tables package (now on CRAN) might simplify the production of the table. It is set up to work with Hmisc currently. Duncan Murdoch
And for tableGrob, you can see some very basic functionality by typing library(gridExtra) example(tableGrob) Michael On Wed, Dec 7, 2011 at 11:58 PM, Gabor Grothendieck <ggrothendieck at gmail.com> wrote:> On Wed, Dec 7, 2011 at 11:42 PM, Michael <comtech.usa at gmail.com> wrote: >> Do you have an example...?

Hi Michael I have seen that this post has taken omn quite a life of it's own. Just for the record I want to add another very neat package that I didn't see mentioned elsewhere: reporttools regrads Christiaan On 7 December 2011 20:14, Michael <comtech.usa at gmail.com> wrote:> Hi all, > > I am looking for recommendations/pointers about best report generator you > think that are currently available? > > i.e. the package that can help turn console output into nice-looking neat > report to send to bosses? > > thanks a lot! > > ? ? ? ?[[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.-- Christiaan Pauw Nova Institute www.nova.org.za
