Dear R-Help,
Is it possible to set R up to run a particular script at specific
times of the day? trivial example: If the time is now 8:59:55am and I
wish to run a function at 9am, I do the following:
my.function <- function(x) {
p1 <- proc.time()
Sys.sleep(x)
print('Hello R-Help!')
proc.time() - p1
}
my.function (5)
[1] "Hello R-Help!"
user system elapsed
0 0 5
What I would rather do is just put in the time at which I wish R to
execute at.
Hope that made sense, and thanks for any help in advance!
