write | R Documentation |
The data (usually a matrix) x
are written to file file
.
If x
is a two-dimensional matrix you need to transpose it to get the
columns in file
the same as those in the internal representation.
write(x, file = "data", ncolumns = if(is.character(x)) 1 else 5, append = FALSE, sep = " ")
x |
