Description

Print a data frame.

Usage

"print"(x, ..., digits = NULL, quote = FALSE, right = TRUE, row.names = TRUE)

Arguments

x
object of class data.frame.
...
optional arguments to print or plot methods.
digits
the minimum number of significant digits to be used: see print.default.
quote
logical, indicating whether or not entries should be printed with surrounding quotes.
right
logical, indicating whether or not strings should be right-aligned. The default is right-alignment.
row.names
logical (or character vector), indicating whether (or what) row names should be printed.

Details

This calls format which formats the data frame column-by-column, then converts to a character matrix and dispatches to the print method for matrices.

When quote = TRUE only the entries are quoted not the row names nor the column names.

Run this code
(dd <- data.frame(x = 1:8, f = gl(2,4), ch = I(letters[1:8])))
     # print() with defaults

     # suppresses row.names and quotes all entries
