persiting complex R objects
Hi!
?save
'save' writes an external representation of R objects to the
specified file. The objects can be read back from the file at a
later date by using the function 'load' (or 'data' in some cases).
?load
Reload the datasets written to a file with the function 'save'.
/E

Is there a method to save a large and complex R object (either as a binary or text file) so that it can be loaded and reused at a later time? Specifically, I am creating large lists (several thousand elements), each element of which is either a vector or a matrix (with ~ 2000 rows). The dimensions of the matrices are not all the same. My ideal would be a set of functions of the form obj <- create() # computes the object save(obj,filename) obj <- load(filename) -- ---------------------------------------------------- Richard Mott | Wellcome Trust Centre tel 01865 287588 | for Human Genetics fax 01865 287697 | Roosevelt Drive, Oxford OX3 7BN
