dump("yourObject", file=stdout()) is, IMO, a bit nicer than plain
dput(yourObject). It makes copying and pasting even easier by putting
"yourObject <-" in front of dput()'s output so readers don't have to type
that themselves.
E.g.,
> myData <- data.frame(X=1:2, Y=c(exp(1), pi))
> dump("myData", file=stdout())
myData <-
structure(list(X = 1:2, Y = c(2.71828182845905, 3.14159265358979
)), .Names = c("X", "Y"), row.names = c(NA, -2L), class = "data.frame")
> dput(myData)
structure(list(X = 1:2, Y = c(2.71828182845905, 3.14159265358979
)), .Names = c("X", "Y"), row.names = c(NA, -2L), class = "data.frame")
