[R] Console Output Formatting

[arun]

Hi,
You could use ?cat()
For ex:
vec1<-1:100
cat(vec1)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100> 
 cat(vec1,sep=",")
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,76,77,78,79,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,100> 

#or
 write(vec1,"",sep=",")
1,2,3,4,5

Subject: [R] Console Output Formatting

Hi,

Working with R, I often want to copy and paste some values somewhere else.  (Its not worth saving a CSV file for a dozen or so entries.)  Or, I may want to copy all the names of an object into some code.

R, rather nicely, wraps output with an index number on the left side.

For example:

[1] -1.07781972 -1.12157840  1.79303276  1.53313388 -1.30854455  0.45641730  0.23866722 -1.96265084
  [9] -1.90779578 -0.68418936 -2.04910282  0.12008358 -1.71072687 -0.36707605 -0.36939204 -2.02799948
[17]  0.36466562 -1.34204214 -0.45100125 -0.60483154  0.42208268 -0.89535576 -1.09398009 -2.07257728
[25] -0.04615273 -0.23659570  0.27232736  1.28432538 -2.17042948 -0.45364579  1.52957528  0.39838320
[33]  0.64923323 -1.01651051 -0.36287974 -0.73787761  0.48088199 -1.19539814 -0.80079095 -1.02507331



While this is great to read on screen, it is a pain to have to edit out all the index numbers.  

Is there a simple way to just back the values, or even a comma separated list of the values?



Thanks!
