[R] Simulation Progress

[Gorjanc Gregor]

Hi!

What about use of %%, so you print every nth iteration on screen, you can
afcoures calculate how many % of iterations has already passed etc.

Some dummy example:

i <- 0
x <- 1:1000000
for (i in x) {
    if (i %% 100 == 0) {
        print(i)
    }
}

Lep pozdrav / With regards,

Hi,

I've made a function that executes a monte-carlo simulation.
It always needs a lot of time until e.g. 1Mio simulation steps are done.
So I would like to know, how many percent of the work is already done.

In an Excel/VBA Solution I could easily implement a status bar or status
window.

How could an R-Solution look like?
