| write.table {base} | R Documentation |
write.table prints its required argument x (after
converting it to a data frame if it is not one already) to
file. The entries in each line (row) are separated by the
value of sep.
write.table(x, file = "", append = FALSE, quote = TRUE, sep = " ",
eol = "\n", na = NA, row.names = TRUE, col.names = TRUE)
x |
the object to be written, typically a data frame. If not, it is attempted to create one from it. |
file |
the name of the file which the data are to be written to. |
sep |
the field separator string. Values on each line of the file are separated by this string. |
col.names |
a logical value indicating whether the column names
of x are to be written along with x, or a character
vector of column names to be written. |
row.names |
a logical value indicating whether the row names of
x are to be written along with x, or a character
vector of row names to be written. |
quote |
a logical or a numeric vector. If TRUE, any
strings in the data will be surrounded by double quotes. If a
numeric vector, its elements are taken as the indices of the
variable (columns) to quote. In both cases, row and columns names
are always quoted if they are written. |
na |
the string to use for missing values in the data. |
eol |
the character(s) to print at the end of each line (row). |
