cprint: Copy Print

This is a simple package to solve an issue I run into quite often: convert a simple data structure I am working with (i.e., a vector or data frame) into code that can be copy and pasted into an R script or the R interpreter that will reproduce the original object.

Installation

Install from GitHub:

if (!requireNamespace("devtools")) {
  install.packages("devtools")
}
devtools::install_github("bgreenwell/cprint")

Basic usage

Output can be copied and pasted directly into an R script or the R interpreter:

library(cprint)

cprint(iris[1:5, ])

## data.frame( 
##   Sepal.Length = c(5.1, 4.9, 4.7, 4.6, 5), 
##   Sepal.Width = c(3.5, 3, 3.2, 3.1, 3.6), 
##   Petal.Length = c(1.4, 1.4, 1.3, 1.5, 1.4), 
##   Petal.Width = c(0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0.2), 
##   Species = c("setosa", "setosa", "setosa", "setosa", "setosa") 
## )

cprint(iris$Petal.Width[1:5])

## c(0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0.2)

cprint(iris$Species[1:5])

## factor(c("setosa", "setosa", "setosa", "setosa", "setosa"))

TODO

• Preserve numeric precision
• Support matrices
