Hello, In my script I have one list of 1,132,533 vectors (each vector contains 381 elements).
When I use "write" to save this list in a flat text file (I unlist my list, separate by tabs, and set ncol to 381), I end up with a file of 1,132,535 lines (2 additional lines). I checked back, my R list do not have those two additional items before writing. With awk, I determined if lines where not made of 381 fields: there were two, separated by around 400k lines. I made sub-files, using those "incomplete" lines as boundaries. My files are very close in size : 1.9 GB (respectively 1971841853 B and 1972614897 B). It feels like a 32 bit / 64 bit issue. My R version is this: ./Rscript -e 'sessionInfo()$platform' [1] "x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (64-bit)" There is somewhere, reaching 1.9 GB, something that is changing my tabs to unwanted carriage returns... Any idea that might cause this, and if it looks solvable in R?
