here appears to be a bug in the foreign library. The following code used to
work, but now generates an error when 'package="SAS"' is specified:
ds <- read.csv("http://www.math.smith.edu/sasr/datasets/help.csv";)
# running foreign package version 0.8-30
library(foreign)
# this works fine
write.foreign(ds, "foo", "bar", package="Stata")
# this yields an error
write.foreign(ds, "foo", "bar", package="SAS")
# Error in writeForeignSAS(df = list(id = c(1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 5L, 6L, 7L, :
# object "dfn" not found
There appears to be a space between < and - in foreign:::writeForeignSAS on
or around line 15:
dfn < - df
should be
dfn <- df
