Hi everybody,
I started to receive a weird message in R that I have never seen
before...also I haven't found anything on google or on this forum about it.
Whenever I use the command source(...) to point to one of my scripts, I get
the following message:
Error in source("myfunctions.R") : myfunctions.R:884:9: unexpected symbol
883:
884: cond
^
I am using the same commands as I did in the past and it was working...I
started to receive this error (not sure if it has to do with it or not)
after trying to create a batch file to run one of my .R scripts with
double-click. That batch file worked...but as soon as I use the source()
command it does not work any more.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks
Francesco

The message indicates that on line 884 of that script, the parser is finding a syntax error. A common way to generate that error is to fail to close parentheses, e.g. ( a cond gives a similar one. Duncan Murdoch
