我想应用一个循环来从R中的多个网页中抓取数据.我能够抓取一个网页的数据,但是当我尝试使用多个页面的循环时,我得到一个令人沮丧的错误.我花了几个小时修补,但没有用.任何帮助将不胜感激!!!
这有效:
###########################
# GET COUNTRY DATA

library("rvest")
site <- paste("http://www.countryreports.org/country/","Norway",".htm", sep="")
site <- html(site)
stats<-
data.frame(names =site %>% html_nodes(xpath="//*/td[1]") %>% html_text() ,
facts =site %>% html_nodes(xpath="//*/td[2]") %>% html_text() ,
stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
stats$country <- "Norway"
stats$names <- gsub('[\r\n\t]', '', stats$names)
stats$facts <- gsub('[\r\n\t]', '', stats$facts)
View(stats)

但是,当我尝试在循环中写入它时,我收到一个错误
