| print {base} | R Documentation |
print prints its argument and returns it invisibly (via
invisible(x)). It is a generic function which means that
new printing methods can be easily added for new
classes.
print(x, ...)
print.factor(x, quote = FALSE, max.levels = NULL,
width = getOption("width"), ...)
x |
an object used to select a method. |
... |
further arguments passed to or from other methods. |
quote |
logical, indicating whether or not strings should be printed with surrounding quotes. |
max.levels |
integer, indicating how many levels should be
printed for a factor; if 0, no extra "Levels" line will be
printed. The default, NULL, entails chosing max.levels
such that the levels print on one line of width width. |
width |
only used when max.levels is NULL, see above. |
The default method, print.default has its own help page.
Use methods("print") to get all the methods for the
print generic.
print.factor allows some customization and is used for printing
ordered factors as well.
See noquote as an example of a class whose main
purpose is a specific print method.
The default method print.default, and help for the
methods above; further options, noquote.
