Hello all,
This shouldn't be difficult, but I am not able to extract a printed
value from a function and assign it to an object.
In my case,
library(DAAG)
twotPermutation(c(2,3,4),c(3,6,5),plotit=F)
[1] 0.298
I would like to assign this result to an object.
A third suggestion which has virtues of simplicity and keeping the
result "numeric":
x<- print( twotPermutation(c(2,3,4),c(3,6,5),plotit=F) )
Does that work? Not for me.
> x
[1] 0.1
This may be some 'other' x. DAAG's twotPermutation() has an
explicit
print(signif(pval, 3))
as its penultimate statement, followed by
invisible()
I don't know what, if any, advantage this code has over simply
returning
invisible(signif(pval, 3))

Two suggestions:
1.
Modify the code for twotPermutation by removing the invisible()
at the end.
2.
Use capture.output to capture the result and then convert
to numeric:
pvstring<- capture.output(
twotPermutation( c(2,3,4), c(3,6,5), plotit=FALSE) ))
Now you can use strsplit or substr to extract the numeric part:
pv<- as.numeric(strsplit(pvstring, " ")[[1]][2])
or
pv<- as.numeric(
substr(pvstring, nchar(pvstring) - 5, nchar(pvstring)))
