How to print text and variables in a single line in r

Question

Is there a way to print text and variables in a single line in r

eg

a="Hello"
b="EKA"
c="123456"

print("$a !! my name is $b and my number is $c")

out put will be like this

Hello !! my name is EKA and my number is 123456

Answer 1

I'd suggest using sprintf function. The advantage of this function is, that the variables can be of any class (here, c is numeric).

a="Hello"
b="EKA"
c=123456

sprintf("%s !! my name is %s and my number is %i", a, b, c)

Answer 2

print( paste("You have choosen the following file name: ", fileName)) 

will do the job

Answer 3

I like to do this: print(c('x=',x)) The output format is messy but all and all it is most convenient and flexible method I know (it works INSIDE FUNCTIONS unlike the sprintf solution & it can handle more data types too).

It is much faster to type than: print(paste('x=',x)). Which is rather cumbersome for a simple print function!

Notable Alternative: cat('x=',x,'\n')

I tend to avoid this also because I find it tedius to always specify the newline character. Although technically it was 'the function' that was invented to easily do what you are asking, it was designed poorly IMO.
