write_kstructure: Write a knowledge structure to file

In kstIO: Knowledge Space Theory Input/Output

Write a knowledge structure to file

Description

Write a knowledge structure to file

Usage

write_kstructure(x, filename, format = NULL, sep = ",", enforce = TRUE)

Arguments

x	Knowledge space (in set (kstructure) or matrix (kmstructure) format)
filename	Name of the file to be written
format	File format
sep	Cell separator for CSV files
enforce	Should knowledge structure properties be enforced (only for matrix form)? If the file format is not specified, write_kstructure() looks at the filename extension. If it is some spreadsheet type (CSV, ODS, or XLSX), the respective file format is chosen, otherwise SRBT is selected. For larger knowledge structures, it might be better suitable and way more efficient to save and later load them with the save() and load() functions - if they are to be used only with R.
