R continue loop on error
<h1>apparently try and trycatch do not work for this problem! Any alternative solutions?</h1>
<p>i'm trying to make the following example code work without actually changing any code</p>
<pre><code>result = 0
for(i in 1:10){
  result = result + i
  log(&quot;a&quot;) #I do not care about this error
  result = result + i
}
</code></pre>
<p>This should give result = 110</p>
<p>If i actually do it manually by copying the part inside the loop and increasing the counter it works perfectly:</p>
<pre><code>result = 0

#iteration 1
i = 1
result = result + i
log(&quot;a&quot;)
result = result + i

#iteration 2
i = i+1
result = result + i
log(&quot;a&quot;)
result = result + i

#iteration 3
i = i+1
result = result + i
log(&quot;a&quot;)
result = result + i

#etc.
</code></pre>
<p>However my real code has about 1000 lines and needs to loop a few hundred times.</p>
<p>So i'd like to have some option</p>
<pre><code>options(on.error.just.continue.the.next.line) = TRUE
</code></pre>
<p>I've read about try/tryCatch but I don't understand it correctly I think</p>
