savehistory writes all the executed lines from the session. How can I write everything (executed lines and output) from the active session to a file? Using Edit | Select All then Edit Copy, I can copy everything to the clipboard and write the whole thing to a file manually. If I just used the clipboard, I can paste the whole content into another edittor (for documentation). Is there a way to

Given a<-"c(1,2,3,4,5)" How can  I evaluate the variable a to return a (numeric) vector comprising of 1,2,3,4,5? Thanks. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I can write a plot to a files of a given format using this: x<-sample(c(1:100),10) bmp("c:/mygraph.bmp") plot(x) dev.off() and then show the image file in another application. This application can also display the image from the stream of numbers that define the image. How I can get the plot as a stream of numbers? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Given: data(AirPassengers) I get a ts data structure AirPassengers in the workspace. How can I generate the code that can create that structure? That is, given an example of a data structure, is there a way to generate the code that can greate that structure? Alternatively, is there a reference that provides a list of dta structures together with a full list of theor respective attributes?

If I create a data.frame using session variables as follows: classResults<-data.frame(subjEnglish,gradeEnglish,subjFrench,gradeFrench,row.names=studentName) How can I remove the variables? I tried > rm(names(classResults)) Error in rm(names(classResults)) :   ... must contain names or character strings Also, how can I include the row.names variable. I tried > names(classResults)

This is copy & paste from my session: > xyz<-as.vector(c(ls(),as.matrix(lapply(ls(),class)))) > dim(xyz)<-c(length(xyz)/2,2) > > allobj<-function(){ + xyz<-as.vector(c(ls(),as.matrix(lapply(ls(),class)))); + dim(xyz)<-c(length(xyz)/2,2); + return(xyz) + } > xyz       [,1]              [,2]        [1,] "a"               "character"  [2,]

How can I conditionally get dow, dowI, and dowW from weekProfile?

I expected the row names to be unique but a data frame appears to be able to hold duplicate row names. This makes me thing that there must be circumstances when it is necessary. However, I cannot think of any. Please enlighten me. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Thank you Michael, Sarah and Robin for the answers to my original question. Michael you asked:"But this is rarely a good idea....perhaps you could say a little more about your overall goal and we could direct you to a more "R"-ish solution? " I realise eval (known as execute in one of my other languages) is not a good idea. The background to my question is as follows: Using

I know that [] is used for indexing. I know that [[]] is used for reference to a property of a COM object. I cannot find any explanation of what [[1]] does or, more pertinently, where it should be used. Thank you. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Greetings List, I am conducting some large simulations using R. As a result, I get many plots but I'm having some trouble with including some of them in a Microsoft Word document. Can any one tell me the easiest method of having copies of the R-graphs in the Word documents? Best regards Mahmoud [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, In the Windows version of R 0.65.1 I'd like to copy the results of a plot to the clipboard either as a bitmap or as a metafile. The same thing in fact as does the menu "Copy to the clipboard" provides but from the command line. I intend to use the DCOM server version of R to do plots, among other things and copy the results to the clipboard and show these on a picture box in my
