So I am trying to save an altered dataset as a .csv file in R. I am using the write.csv function and everything looks accurate but it says that no such directory exists.

Here is the command:

write.csv(Example.raw.data,
    "C:/Users/bradenholmes/Documents/Finance363/NewRawData.csv")

And here is the error:

Error in file(file, ifelse(append, "a", "w")) : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, ifelse(append, "a", "w")) : cannot open file 'C:/Users/bradenholmes/Documents/Finance363/NewRawData.csv': No such file or directory

  • What are the results if you work your way down the file path with `list.files()`, e.g. `list.files("C:/Users/bradenholmes/Documents"); list.files("C:/Users/bradenholmes/Documents/Finance363")` ? Are you considering case-sensitivity? You should also be able to use `~` (tilde) as a shortcut for your home directory, i.e. `"~/Documents/Finance363/NewRawData.csv"` – Ben Bolker Jun 16 '22 at 23:28
