Re: [R] change the name of file
Dear Robert, maybe (!) the following might do the job: for (i in 1:50){ x<-matrix(runif(100, min=0,max=1),nrow=5,ncol=20) Write(t(x),file=paste("Data_" i ".txt", sep=""),ncolumns=5,sep="\t") } Hope it really does...

Re: [R] change the name of file
Great, little change and it works. Thank you. Look for (i in 1:50){ x<-matrix(runif(100, min=0,max=1),nrow=5,ncol=20) write(t(x),file=paste("data_",i,".txt",sep=""),ncolumns=5,sep="\t") } > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, July 24, 2006 11:16 AM > To: Robert Mcfadden > Subject: Re: [R] change the name of file > > >From: Robert Mcfadden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >Date: 2006/07/24 Mon AM 04:06:38 CDT > >To: r-help@stat.math.ethz.ch > >Subject: [R] change the name of file > > i think file=paste("data_", i,"txt",sep="") > should work but someone else will probably > have a better solution. if you try my idesa, > check it because i haven't tested it. > > > > > > >Dear R Users, > >Is it possible to make file names dependent on a changing variable? > >For instance.

Re: [R] change the name of file
Do you mean write.table instead of Write() ? Try fn <- paste("Data_", i, ".txt", sep="") write.table( t(x), file=fn, sep="\t" ) Regards, Adai On Mon, 2006-07-24 at 11:06 +0200, Robert Mcfadden wrote: > Dear R Users, > Is it possible to make file names dependent on a changing variable? > For instance.

[R] change the name of file
Dear R Users, Is it possible to make file names dependent on a changing variable? For instance. I generate random numbers in a loop and at each iteration I want data to write to file (I do not want to write everything in one file using 'append'): for (i in 1:50){ x<-matrix(runif(100, min=0,max=1),nrow=5,ncol=20) Write(t(x),file="Data_i.txt",ncolumns=5,sep="\t") } Of course file name Data_i.txt will be the same for changing i, unfortunately. Any suggestion would be appreciate Robert __ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
