I frequently find myself wanting to do tings like:
for(i in 1:10){
obji_some.odd.function()
}
And after something along the lines of:
for(i in 1:10){
write(obji,File="c:/filei.txt")
}
Some parts of this i manage. But in general, S-plus does not evaluate the
expression all the places i want it to...For instance, it will always creat
a file of the name "filei.txt" rather than file1, file2, ..., file10.
In SAS it is easy,... you just write &i at the approriate places. What is
the analogous expression in S+?
I am sorry, I am sure this is a FAQ, but I have not manage to find the
answer on my own.... Sorry?
