Hello,
For example:
url <- c("http://www.example.com";, "http://www.example5.com";)
res <- vector("list", length(url))
for (i in 1:length(url)) res[[i]] <- try(readLines(url[i]), silent = TRUE)
res[[2]]
## [1] "Error in file(con, \"r\") : cannot open the connection\n"
## attr(,"class")
## [1] "tr
I have a loop over readLines(URL[i]) which works fine until it hits a bad URL
(e.g., a
URL that returns a 404 Error).
How can I handle this with a test for this error condition.
I read the tryCatch( … ) description but can't figure out how to apply it here.
Perhaps
there is something else that
2 matches
