Hi,
No problem.
You could try:
printer = file("out.txt","w")
?writeLines("This is line.",con=printer,sep=" ")
?writeLines("The same line.",con=printer)
?close(printer)
#or
cat(sprintf("This is line %d.
",1),file="out.txt",append=TRUE)
cat("The same line.",file="out.txt",append=TRUE)
A.K.
Thank you very much, I just have one more simple question. It worked
with writing "w" when opening the file. However another problem
occoured, When I wrote \n, it went two lines down, so I had to do this,
witout \n
printer = file("out.txt","w")
write(sprintf("This is line %d.",1),printer,append=T)
write("This is line 2.",printer,append=T)
close(printer)
However, sometimes, I do not want to start on the new line,
it depends on the situation. That is I may write something to a file.
And then I want to add to the same line a new string:
" The same line." Like this.
printer = file("out.txt","w")
write(sprintf("This is line %d.",1),printer,append=T)
write(" The same line.",printer,append=T)
close(printer)
But the output is:
This is line 1.
?The same line.
How can I make it stop going to the new line automatically.

HI,
May be this helps:
printer1<- file("out1.txt","w")
write(sprintf("This is line %d.\n",1),printer1,append=TRUE)
write("This is line 2",printer1,append=TRUE)
close(printer1)
#or
?printer1<- file("out1.txt","w")
writeLines("This is line",con=printer1,sep="\n")
writeLines("This is line 2",con=printer1)
?close(printer1)

Hello, I am trying to wrote multiple lines to a file, but I only seem to be able
to write the last line.
printer = file("out.txt")
write(sprintf("This is line %d.\n",1),printer,append=T)
write("This is line 2.",printer,append=T)
close(printer)
How can I fix this? I would like to be able to do this in a for-loop with
hundreds of elements.
