How do you print to stderr
in R
?
This would especially useful for scripts written in Rscript
.
Use the fprintf Function to Print to stderr in C The standard I/O library in C provides three text streams that are opened implicitly when the program is started on the system. These streams are, standard input ( stdin ) - used for reading input. standard output ( stdout ) - used for writing output.
Stderr is the standard error message that is used to print the output on the screen or windows terminal. Stderr is used to print the error on the output screen or window terminal. Stderr is also one of the command output as stdout, which is logged anywhere by default.
It is good practice to redirect all error messages to stderr , while directing regular output to stdout . It is beneficial to do this because anything written to stderr is not buffered, i.e., it is immediately written to the screen so that the user can be warned immediately.
Actually the following works for me:
write("prints to stderr", stderr()) write("prints to stdout", stdout())
