[R] How to print the frequency table (produced by the command "table" to Excel

[Jim Lemon]

Hi jpm miao,
I think you can get what you want like this:

alpha1<-sample(LETTERS[1:3],50,TRUE)
alpha2<-sample(LETTERS[1:2],50,TRUE)
alphas<-data.frame(alpha1,alpha2)
library(prettyR)
alphatab<-xtab(alpha1~alpha2,alphas)
sink("temp_table3.csv",append=TRUE)
delim.xtab(alphatab,pct=NA,delim=",")
sink()
