To extract the latest entry of a file in R, you need to do the following steps:
Here is an example code snippet:
main.r293 chars15 lines
In this code, we first set the file path variable with the path to our desired file. We then open the file using the file() function and set the read mode as "r". Next, we read the contents of the file using readLines() function, which stores the contents of the file in file_contents variable. Finally, we extract the latest entry by using tail() function and access the last line of the file_contents variable.
After that, we close the file using the close() function to release the system resources used by the file. The resulting variable latest_entry will contain the latest entry of the file as a string.
