I've recently wanted to analyze some data sets of growth curves; so, I decided to try out the grofit package the dataset inputting gave me some issues.


I've been trying to replicate the example from the grofit package with


R


> foo <- ran.data(100, 25)

> time <- foo$time
> data <- foo$data


> write.csv(file="data.csv", foo)

> sink(file="sink.txt")

> foo

> sink()


also to see if there is another problem I'm missing i've used sink() to see the actual output of this data.


The sink call provides a dataframe object, however I'm trying to use my own data in this. Is there a way to create the dataframe object in excel (I've tried following the example from the write.csv() output).


I know there is a problem with the input method by following the .csv output and i could use follow the sink() output to create my data frame object; however, I'm not sure about how i would do this with a large dataset with lets say 1000 data points. Has anyone ran into this issue and is there a quick work around?

No luck in mimicking these examples for me.
