Hello all,
I had some trouble recently with write.csv because I couldn't change one
of the default options. A quick view of the code showed that the
function was not defined in the most optimal way.
Currently,
write.csv <- function (..., col.names = NA, sep = ",", qmethod =
"double")
write.table(..., col.names = NA, sep = ",", qmethod = "double")
Thus, the options passed along to write.csv are ignored by the function
(unless in the ...).
Perhaps a better way to define the function is as such (similar to
read.csv):
write.csv <- function (..., col.names = NA, sep = ",", qmethod =
"double")
write.table(..., col.names = col.names, sep = sep, qmethod =
qmethod)
The same also applies to write.csv2
Best,
Robert
