Re: [R] Simple cat statement - output truncated

I suppose it's conceivable that your object named "object" has some non-standard character(s) in it that cause the code underlying cat() to do something weird. For example, cat('abcdef','\r','\n') bcdef Appears to truncate the first character. Basic debugging suggests breaking down the pr

Re: [R] Simple cat statement - output truncated

It has to be related to 'cat' because the output of 'cat' is truncated. I am just tyring to find out some possible reasons as to why it is truncated. I have been unable to form an array like is in the test program. Do you think there is something else that is gobbling up the output from cat that

Re: [R] Simple cat statement - output truncated

So then I am to assume that the output of 'cat' can be truncated by passing it "bad" arrays. That is the only difference between the "reproducible" code you show and mine. It is just a theory but say that the components array is not dimmensioned for 4 elements. It seems a little strange if that
