save(..., list = character(0), file = "", ascii = FALSE) save.image()
...
| the names of the objects to be saved. |
list
| A character vector containing the names of objects to be saved. |
file
| the name of the file where the data will be saved. |
ascii
|
if TRUE , an ASCII representation of the data is
written. This is useful for transporting data between machines of
different types. The default value of ascii is FALSE
which leads to a more compact binary file being written.

save
writes a external representation of R objects to the
specified file. The objects can be read back from the file at a later
date by using the function load
.
save.image()
is just a short-cut for ``save my current
environment'',
i.e., save(list = ls(), file = ".RData")
. It is what also
happens with q("yes")
.

.x <- runif(20) y <- list(a = 1, b = TRUE, c = "oops") save(x, y, file = "xy.Rdata") save.image()
