[R] Equivalent of log file in R?

2011-02-21 Thread Tatyana Deryugina
Hi everyone,

Is there a way to make R save the workspace output (just the results,
not the objects themselves) as you go? I'm running analysis that takes
a long time to run and I want to be able to interrupt it without
losing all the output to date. Is there an alternative to putting
save.image() commands after every couple lines of code?

Best,
Tatyana

Thanks, Ista! I looked at sink() and it looks like it might work.
However, it seems as though you need to use it with the print
command. I have a lot of regression output that I would like to store
in a log file. How do I use sink with that?

Best,
Tatyana
