I wrote an R script on an institutional computer. I saved it on an external device (USB PenDrive) and tested it on a computer not of my institution. When I run it to test it using R from Terminal and from GUI I never saved it on the host computer.
This because it has to remain secret until it will be published. I simply would like to know if R or Unix itself saved it elsewhere while running although I load it directly giving the path of Volumes and so on.
In other words the question is does running an R script off a USB leave any trace of it on the host computer.
P.S.: I checked the R history to look for it but it seems not to be saved.
