Sometimes R stops displaying output. I type the number 1, followed by the return key, and nothing appears.
This situation occurred after I pressed the “STOP” icon in the window, which is for stopping long calculations. I’m using R 2.11.0 on a Mac.
Does pressing “STOP” cause R to stop displaying output? How do I get R to display output again?
Are you running a Sweave script or something else with output redirection? Breaking out of a Sweave script will frequently leave you with no output. Try
sink(NULL)and see if that fixes it.
