I need confint() for glm() to supress the messages
I'm wondering if suppressMessages would be helpful? Which in turn suggests that you do not know how to use "??", so firt you should get in the habit of doing a helpSearch before posting.
??"suppress messages"
"Waiting for profiling to be done..." because they mess up the caching mechanism of pgfSweave (see https://github.com/cameronbracken/pgfSweave/issues/40). I have read the help page of confint(), but I do not know how to get the help page for the glm() version, if any such help page exists.
When I type ?confint.glm at my console I get this help page: confint-MASS {MASS}
Is there a general way of turning of output from functions in R, that would help here?
If suppressMessages is not effective then look at: ?sink
Below is an example of an intended usage scenario: x <- 10000 set.seed(42) a <- rnorm(x) b <- factor(LETTERS[sample(1:7, x, replace = TRUE)]) c <- factor(LETTERS[sample(1:4, x, replace = TRUE)]) my.fit <- glm(c ~ b + a, family = "binomial") my.results <- confint(my.fit)
Grrrr. A _minimal_ example would have had fewer iterations, but this does seem to be effective:
