Hi,
I would like to view matrices I am working with in a clean, easy to read,
separate window.
A friend showed me how to do something like I want with edit(). I can view
the matrix in the 'R Data Editor':
For a sample matrix:
> mat=matrix(1:15,ncol=3)
> mat
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] 1 6 11
[2,] 2 7 12
[3,] 3 8 13
[4,] 4 9 14
[5,] 5 10 15
> look=function(x) invisible(edit(x))
> look(mat)
That opens the 'R Data Editor' with mat loaded.
But I am not able to do any other actions in R while this 'R Data Editor' is
open. I want to keep this open while
I do other work.
Is there a way to view my data in something like the 'R Data Editor' that
still allows me to do work at the same time?
I am looking for something other than str(), head(), and tail() which just
allow me a quick peak at the object. I do not
want to edit the object in the table, but be able to watch the object change
while I run anything that would manipulate it.
Thank you for your help.
Best,
