Hi All, I am a beginner to R and a prof helped me with some script. I am having trouble understanding the below line. Is it finding the file turtlehatch.csv? I do not have my working directory set to this file. If so I tried ("file.choose") and it did not work. R did nothing in response, no error message with this entry and the below entry. Can you please help me interpret? : write.csv(data.to.analyze, "turtlehatch.csv", row.names=FALSE) Thanks, J -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Interpreting-script-write-csv-tp4309068p4309068.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Generally R will report errors to the console. You just don't know where to find it because it went to your working directory. Try this to find where it went: getwd()> > Can you please help me interpret? : > > write.csv(data.to.analyze, "turtlehatch.csv", row.names=FALSE) > > Thanks, J > > -- > View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Interpreting-script-write-csv-tp4309068p4309068.html > Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.R-help is not _at_ Nabble.
