[R] creating txt file from data.frame

[Vladimir Eremeev]

apply(dfr,1,FUN=function(x){
                   cat(c(x[1],
                           
ifelse(x[2]==x[3],x[2],paste(x[2],x[3],sep="-")),"\n"),
                        file="filename.txt")
                 })
This code assumes the data frame with at least 3 columns, errors will occur
if there will be less than 3 columns.
