Hi everyone, I want to write a list of data frames to a text file and preserve the names given to the list elements (I am using R 3.1.0).
I tried: setNames(myList, myNames) # myNames is a vector of char elements same length as myList sink(sprintf("%s",filename)) lapply(myList,print) sink() And here I have two problems: 1. R writes each element of my list to the text file twice, so for example if I have a list with 2 elements (i.e. data frames) in it, it will write 4: in order data frame 1, data frame 2, data frame 1, data frame 2. 2. The names of list elements do not print to the text file. Any suggestions to solve these issues would be appreciated!
