No. You have not used it correctly. It was an example. Put your commands between the two sink functions. That will save any printed out put that results from those commands. It will not save attr, but you did not ask how to do that.

Hi David,
Thank you for the example.
When I try to use the cat function, I get an error


cat(attr<-getAttractors(net, type="asynchronous"))

Error in cat(attr <- getAttractors(net, type = "asynchronous")) :
  argument 1 (type 'pairlist') cannot be handled by 'cat'

Please let me know, if I have used the function in right way?.
Thank you
Priya

Depending on your operating system, you may also be able to save the output with File | Save to File.

Subject: Re: [R] Function to save results

Hi Eric,Thanks for the explanation. Is there a way to save the results automatically after the analysis gets over?. As I recently lost the results, because I didn't save the results. I don't want to run the sink or save command after the analysis is over rather run the command for saving the file before starting to run the analysis, so the file gets saved automatically after the script has finished running Priya

Hi Priya,
You did not follow the logic of the pseudo-code. The sink("filename"), sink() pair captures whatever output is generated between the first sink statement and the second sink statement.You need (possibly) to do:
sink("C://Users//Priya// Desktop//Attractor analysis_all genes//synaptogenesis//attr. txt") net <- loadNetwork("C://Users//Priya/ /Desktop//Attractor analysis_all genes//synaptogenesis// regulationof_dopamine_ signaling_submodule3.txt")attr <- getAttractors(net, type="asynchronous")
sink()
HTH,Eric

Hi Eric,I tried as you suggested but I could not find the output in the text file I created (attr.txt)

net <- loadNetwork("C://Users//Priya/ /Desktop//Attractor analysis_all genes//synaptogenesis// regulationof_dopamine_ signaling_submodule3.txt")sink("C://Users//Priya// Desktop//Attractor analysis_all genes//synaptogenesis//attr. txt")


sink()

attr <- getAttractors(net, type="asynchronous")

Some comments:1. sink() does not return a value. There is on point to set attr <- sink(...). Just give the command sink("C://....etc")2. to complete the saving to the file you must give a second sink command with no argument:  sink()So your code would be (pseudo-code, not actual code) sink( "filename" )do something that prints output which will be captured by sinksink() HTH,Eric

Hi,I want the results to be saved automatically in a output text file after the script has finished running.

I used the sink function in the following example, but the results file (output.txt) was empty.

net <- loadNetwork("C://Users//Priya/ /Desktop//Attractor analysis_all genes//synaptogenesis// regulationof_dopamine_ signaling_submodule3.txt")# First I loaded theinput file for which I want to identify attractors attr <- sink("C://Users//Priya// Desktop//Attractor analysis_all genes//synaptogenesis//output. txt")# used the sink function to save the results from attr function

attr <- getAttractors(net, type="asynchronous")# then ran the script for identifying attractors Is there any function to save the results before setting the script to run, so that results are automatically saved in a text file after the script has finished running?

Thank youPriya
