[R] Question in Using sink function

[Yao, Minghua]

Thanks, Prof. Ripley.

Right. I saw nothing, either, when I tried without "for" loop.
Does anywhere in the documents mention that Autoprinting does not work
inside a for() {} loop?

Autoprinting does not work inside a for() {} loop, and you did not print 
anything.

Try

for(i in 1:10) {i}

Did you try your problem without sink()?
