Avoid Sweave from stopping on errors

You could use <<eval=FALSE>>= and the code inside the chunk will not be evaluated. I suppose two other options could be to comment out the bad code inside the code chunk or to use verbatim to make it look like a code chunk in your output.

Subject: [R] Avoid Sweave from stopping on errors

Hi all,

Is there an option in Sweave to avoid it from stopping on a code chunk with an error? (I purposefully want to include code with an error in class notes.)

I suspect the answer is "no" and that I will be pointed to options("error").
That'd be fine, but which error parameter will just "do nothing" in case of an error?

Thanks in advance!

Another option is to wrap the call that will produce an error in
try().  You still get the error report, etc. but execution does not
stop.
