Hi there.

I encountered an issue that puzzled me while trying to save an R dataset data to re-open in Gretl from inside foreign {} end foreign

gretl.export(x) saves in .csv but loses information (column and rows, keeps only the central data). I tried many set.

As an example, the native AirPassengers dataset:

/* ------------ script ----------------*/

set R_functions on

foreign language=R

library(ggplot2)

library(ggfortify)

library(remotes)

autoplot(AirPassengers)

p<-autoplot(AirPassengers, ts.colour = 'blue')

p + ggtitle('AirPassengers') + xlab('Year') + ylab('Passengers')

data <- as.matrix(AirPassengers) #fails

gretl.export(data)

#data <- data.frame(AirPassengers)

#save(data, file = "C:/User/USUARIO/AppData/Roaming/gret/AirPassengers.csv")

#gretl.export(AirPassengers) #fails

#write.csv(AirPassengers, file = "C:/Users/USUARIO/AppData/Roaming/gret/AirPassengers.csv", sep=";" , dec= ",", append=FALSE, row.names=TRUE) #fails

#write.csv(AirPassengers, file = "C:/User/USUARIO/AppData/Roaming/gret/AirPassengers.csv", row.names=FALSE, quote=FALSE) #fails

#write_xlsx also fails

end foreign

open C:/Users/USUARIO/AppData/Roaming/gretl/AirPassengers.csv #opens set in gretl

/*-----------------------------------*/

Only gretl.export SAVES to disk. But saves the wrong data.

I am attaching what the set should look like.

Anyone knows how to work around this?

Many thanks

Tony
