Dear List,
I can't seem to get a simple paste function to work like I need. I have an
object I need to call but it ends in a character string. The object is a list
of home range values for a range of percent isopleths. I need to loop through
a vector of percent values, so I need to paste the percent as a character on
the end of the object variable. I have no idea why the percent is in character
form, and I can't use a simple index value (homerange[[1]]$polygons[100])
because there are a variable number of isopleths that are calculated and [100]
will not always correspond to "100". So I am stuck.
What I want is:
homerange[[1]]$polygons$"100"
What I need is something like the following, but that works:
percent<-c("100","75","50")
p=1
paste(homerange[[1]]$polygons$,percent[p],sep="")
Thanks for the help,
Tim
