Print character string without indices in R [duplicate]

Question

I have looked at the answers to Print list without line numbers in R and Prevent print() from outputting list indices in R, but neither seems to prevent R from printing a character string with indices are the left.

Input:

foo = "10 & 1.832171"    
print(foo, row.names=F, quote=F)  

Output:

[1] 10 & 1.832171

Desired Output:

 10 & 1.832171

Is this possible at all?

Answer 1

> foo = "10 & 1.832171"       
> cat(foo)
10 & 1.832171
