Possible to print more than 100 rows of a data.table?

Question

The data.table has a nice feature that suppresses output to the head and tail of the table.

Is it possible to view / print more than 100 rows at once?

li         


        

Answer 1

The print method of data.table has an argument nrows:

args(data.table:::print.data.table)
function (x, nrows = 100L, digits = NULL, ...) 

You can use this to control how many rows get printed:

print(dtIris, nrow=105)
.....
99:          5.1         2.5          3.0         1.1 versicolor
100:          5.7         2.8          4.1         1.3 versicolor
101:          6.3         3.3          6.0         2.5  virginica
102:          5.8         2.7          5.1         1.9  virginica
103:          7.1         3.0          5.9         2.1  virginica
104:          6.3         2.9          5.6         1.8  virginica
105:          6.5         3.0          5.8         2.2  virginica
