write.taf {TAF}

Write TAF Table to File

Description

Write a TAF table to a file.

Usage

write.taf(x, file = NULL, dir = NULL, quote = FALSE, row.names = FALSE,
  fileEncoding = "UTF-8", underscore = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x

a data frame in TAF format.

file

a filename.

dir

an optional directory name.

quote

whether to quote strings.

row.names

whether to include row names.

fileEncoding

character encoding for output file.

underscore

whether automatically generated filenames (when file = NULL) should use underscore separators instead of dots.

...

passed to write.csv.

Details

Alternatively, x can be a list of data frames or a string vector of object names, to write many tables in one call. The resulting files are named automatically, similar to file = NULL.

The default value file = NULL uses the name of x as a filename, so a data frame called survey.uk will be written to a file called ‘survey_uk.csv’ (when underscore = TRUE) or ‘survey.uk.csv’ (when underscore = FALSE).

The special value file = "" prints the data frame in the console, similar to write.csv.

Value

No return value, called for side effects.

Note

This function gives a warning when column names are missing or duplicated, unless the target directory name is ⁠report⁠. It also gives a warning if the data frame has zero rows.
