Dear R Helpers,
I have a large number of data frames and I need to create a new column
inside each data frame. Because there is a large number, I need to "loop"
through this, but I don't know the syntax of assigning a new column name
dynamically.
Below is a simple example of what I need to do. Assume that I have to do
this for all 26 letters and you should see the form of the problem.
Any help would be much appreciated. If more information is needed, please
let me know.
Many thanks.

library(quantmod)
A <- data.frame(population=c(100, 300, 5000, 2000, 900, 2500))
A$Rate<-ROC(A["population"])
B <- data.frame(population=c(200, 300, 4000, 3000, 2000, 500))
B$Rate<-ROC(B["population"])
letters<-c("A","B")
length(letters)
#for (i in letters){
# HELP!
#}
