 +Without "append=TRUE" option, the content will be **overwritten** with the succeeding content. The above method is tedious and error prone. The second line has a different filename. The below method (making connection to file with file function) is better. 
  
 <code>con <- file("analysisReport.out", "w") <code>con <- file("analysisReport.out", "w")
Line 45: Line 51:
 close(con)</code> close(con)</code>
  
 +"file("filename.txt", "w")" opens "filename.txt and remains open until "close(opened_variable)" function. In this case, append=TRUE option is not necessary.
