If I have an R script that I am executing from a command line in linux, do you know how I can return the value of the variable in my R script to the linux environment without writing it to a file in my R script and then reading the file through cat? For example, if I had a simple one line R script that just did string <- 'TEST', when I call /usr/local/bin/R

summary: how to structure an R file such that it can be both 1. used as a script via, e.g., (from OS commandline) $ Rscript foo.r bar=baz 2. imported and called as a function via, e.g. (from R commandline) > source('./foo.r) > foo(bar='baz') ? I'm looking for the 'R equivalent' of how python supports this usecase. details: As discussed in the thread beginning

Does anyone know why the following code hangs on the do.call, but works fine when I either comment out the require(timeSeries) or only do 2 levels of a for loop instead of 3? Thanks, Andrew Bierbryer require(timeSeries) num <- 1 x.list <- list() for ( i in 1:10 ) { for ( j in 1:20 ) { for ( k in 1:30 ) { x.list[[num]] <- cbind(num,10)

What ? ------ We are pleased to announce version 0.0.6 of littler What's new ? ------------ This version includes a bug fix or two as well as a number of small enhancements to the documentation. For OS X and the r/R confusion, our recommended suggestion is to call configure using either the --program-suffix=X or --program-prefix=Y option to have the binary and manual

Hi. I would like to know how to start an embedded R session, and avoid datasets and the standard library packages to be loaded on startup. I've been looking at littler's code (so this is partly a question to Dirk Eddelbuettel...): > /* We don't require() default packages upon startup; rather, we > * set up delayedAssign's instead. see autoloads(). >

Dear R folks, I have several data sets I want to process automatically using R. I found littler [1] and thought this will do the trick. 1. Read in data file to a data frame using `scan()`. 2. Do linear regression. 3. Write the data and the coefficients back to a file. #!/usr/bin/env r if (is.null(argv) | length(argv)!=1) { cat("Usage:

Dear R experts: I am a bit stymied by how the argument picking-off works in R batch file usage. $ cat commandArgs.R cat(" Command Line Arguments were ", commandArgs(), "\n"); $ /usr/bin/R CMD BATCH commandArgs.R --args 1 2 3 $ /usr/bin/R --args 1 CMD BATCH commandArgs.R ... I am now getting into interactive mode ?! I guess it really is skipping the rest of the command line

Dear R folks, wanting to compare different implementations of a solution I want to script it to iterate over the different implementations. Is there a way to do this in the R shell/command line? $ more /tmp/iterf.r f1 <- function(n = 100000, l = 100000) { z = n + l } f2 <- function(n = 100000,
