A more compact example might be helpful: g <- array(0,dim=c(4,4)) g
save(g,file="D:/g") h <- load(file="D:/g") h -----Original Message----- From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On Behalf Of Downey, Patrick Sent: Friday, September 23, 2011 9:32 AM To: r-help@r-project.org Subject: [R] 'save' saved object names instead of objects Hello, I created an array to hold the results of a series of simulations I'm running: d.eta <- array(0,dim=c(3,3,200)) <simulation goes here and populates the array but it's not important> Then I tried to save the results using this: save(d.eta,file="D:/Simulation Results/sim 9-23-11 deta") When I later tried to reload them using this: d.eta <- load(file="D:/Simulation Results/sim 9-23-11 deta") I got the following: > class(d.eta) [1] "character" > d.eta [1] "d.eta" Why didn't it load the original object that I tried to save (the array)? Is the problem with how I'm saving or how I'm loading? Any explanation would be greatly appreciated. And to head off this question, I did check after the simulation, before saving, and the d.eta object is an array of numbers.
