1. I have a R program in a file say "functions.R".
I load the "functions.R" file the R using source("function.R") and then call
functionsf1(), f2() etc. which are declared and defined within "function.R"
 file.
I also need to load a couple of R libraries using library() before I can
use f1(), f2() etc.

My question is can I acheive all this (i.e. calling function f1() and f2())
from the windows prompt without opening the R environment ? If yes then how?


2. Also, Is there any way to scan strings directly. Like scan() function
only scans numerical values. Is there any way to scan strings?
