[R] Dummies: Call function or script

[David Winsemius]

"xyz" does not look to me like a valid directory for Windows. Try a  
complete directory string:

setwd("C://username/My Documents/r-work/") # might be something more  
likely

Note the forward slashes. Backslashes are special characters in R. The  
interpreter would need to see each backslash doubled in ourder to  
succeed.

(You might reconsider whether you want to address the group as  
"Dummies".)
