hi all,
i wanted to use the sink function to sequentially output regression
summaries within a for-loop. i must have something wrong somewhere
(or be
using the sink function incorrectly), but can anyone help?
the code I am using is:
Please use code and data which is reproducible for us. As we don't
have
access to your data, we'd have to construct some of our own.
This code, however, has the same effect:
for (i in 1:100) {
sink("./sometext.txt", append=TRUE)
summary(rnorm(80))
sink()}
When you do the following:
for (i in 1:100) {
summary(rnorm(80))}
what output do you get?
He'd get nothing at all.
Did you ***try*** your code?
And all this output
``All this output''! Consisting of the empty set !!!
is redirected to your file by sink(), so it works
as expected.
That all depends on what you expect, I guess. Most people
would expect to get some output. As Tony expected.
cheers,
Rolf Turner
