Hello,

For entering data alone, you would not need a package. For simple questionnaires, you could write a function.

It could go like this. For example you want to record people's names and their ages:

# Sets up an empty database
database <<- c()

enter_data <- function() {
   show("Enter name:")
   name <- as.character(readline())
show("Enter age:")
   age <- as.numeric(readline())
# Appends data from one questionnaire to the
   # database
   database <<- rbind(database,data.frame(name,age))
# Calls the function in order to proceed
   # with another questionnaire
enter_data() # stop the function using the "stop" button when you are finished
   }

exporting "database" into a CSV or a text file should not be a problem with write.csv() or write.csv2().



Kind regards,


David Croll
