Hello,
I want to use a for loop for repeadely calculating
a maxent model (package dismo, function maxent()) which
creates an object of the class maxent (S4).
I want to collect all the resulting object in a list.
I tried to simplify my for loop to explain what I want.
There are two problems/questions:
1) How can I create the new variables in the loop (using paste) and assign the
objects
2) How can I collect the results (objects) in a list
X <- factor(c("A","B","C"))
for(in in X){
as.name(paste("result","X",sep="_")) <- runif(5) #any object
# create list of objects with names
}
I read something about assign(), but that assigns a value and not an object to
a variable. Some time ago I did something similar but with a matrix: Thus I
created an empty matrix before the loop and indexed the matrix inside the loop
to assign values. But here it is about assigning ojects to variables and
coercing these to a list.
Any suggestions are mostly welcomme.
Thank you,
best regards,
Johannes Radinger
