Greetings,

 

I have just downloaded R onto a 64bit PC running Microsoft 7 Home Edition
via Rgui. I have quite a bit of programming experience, though not as a
professional programmer. I am a Measurement and Assessment professional
(standardized testing). I would like to be able to write R scripts, and call
them from the command line in Rgui. After two attempts, I receive the
following error messages

 

> R CMD BATCH test.R

Error: unexpected symbol in "R CMD"

 

> Rscript test.R

Error: unexpected symbol in "Rscript test.R"

 

These commands were taken directly from the R documents found on the
R-project website.

 

Clearly, I am doing something wrong. The script test.R resides in the R
directory, and includes

 

24 + 6

 

and nothing more. The path to test.R is C:\Program Files\R\test.R

 

Any assistance would be appreciated.
