Hi Robin,

source("filename.R")

will open filename.R from the working directory and behave as if you had
typed in its contents, line by line.

You can include a full path if you like, or use file.choose() for a file not
in your working directory.

Hi,
 Appologies for the simple nature of this question, I am unable to find
the answer in manuals (EG and introduciton to R).
 I have written a function in a text editor and saved it with an .R
extension. It is saved in my working directory. How can I run it, do I
need to use source? If so, how do I supply the arguments to the
function? Or does it need to be saved in a particular directory?
 Do I need a different file extension?
Many thanks for any help.
