Hey, I have stacked a couple of garchFit objects in a list with names $fit1, $fit2, ..., $fiti assigning objects names using a loop, i.e. after running the loop modelStack = list($fit1, $fit2,...,$fiti).
Thus the following apply; a = modelStack$fit2, then a is the second garchFit object of formal class 'fGarch' with 11 slots, @call, @formula... etc. I then want to extract information in the 11 slots using another for loop, say i want to access the slot a...@fit$coef. In order for this to happen I need to combine modelStack$fit2, where the $fit2 object name must be constructed in the loop, with the slot name @fit$coef. In order to construct the proper list names one could use the following in the for loop; name = paste("modelStack$fit",i,"@fit$coef",sep="") # "modelstack$f...@fit$coef" for i = 2, and then use something like get(name) But this returns; Error in get(name) : object 'modelstack$f...@fit$coef' not found If I just type modelstack$f...@fit$coef in the command window it returns the proper info from the object list. I figure this is because R somehow interpret "$" and "@" in get() differently than $ and @ as "list separators". Does anyone know how to extract information in slots of listed objects using a loop and on the run generated variable/object names? JT sample code nAssets = length(modelStack) for(i in 1:nAssets){ name = paste("modelStack[",i,"]...@name$series$h",sep="") a = get(name) t = length(a) } # end for loop -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/accessing-info-in-object-slots-from-listed-objects-using-loops-tp1596135p1596135.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
