Directing Output to a File

The sink() command is used direct output from an R job to a new file. Having nothing in the parentheses will return the output to the terminal. Using something like

> sink("myfile.txt", append=TRUE, split=TRUE)

will direct the output to a file titled myfile.txt, the append option will allow the output to be added to the existing file as opposed to overwriting it, and the split option will send the data to the screen and the output file.
