Hi: I am trying to find end of a FASTA file:
library(ShortRead) fastadata <- readFasta("fastafolder", "fa$") file <- tempfile() writeFasta(fastadata, file) var1 <- readLines(file) while(countlength(tmp <- readLines(file, n = -1)) > 0) { #do something } I want the while loop to run till the end of file is reached, but the while statement dosent work. Thanks for help.
