(ambiguity is the reason for not being able to help you - all the replies in this thread this far are correct and on the spot)BTW, not that it should matter, what is your operating system and version of R?Henrik, As I wrote in earlier messages: sink('stat-summaries/estacada-wnw-precip.txt') print(summary(estacada_se_wx)) sink() results in 24: sink('stat-summaries/estacada-wnw-precip.txt') 25: print(/ ^ Does not matter if I use single or double quotes. The message that print() doesn't like the forward slash results when I specify 'stat-summaries/estacada-wnw-precip.txt' or './stat-summaries/estacada-wnw-precip.txt'. Running R-3.5.1 on Slackware-14.2.
This would appear to have nothing to do with sink(). There is somethingweird about your data set estacada_se_wx or the summary thereof that print() doesn't like.
If I do:
system("mkdir stat-summaries")
estacada_se_wx <- rnorm(10)
sink('stat-summaries/estacada-se-precip.txt')
print(summary(estacada_se_wx))
sink()
system("cat stat-summaries/estacada-se-precip.txt")
I get:
