Hi,

how can I tell 'summary' to print the name of the summarised variable? This is probably an awkward newbie question but I didn't find an answer in the Docus, the FAQ and maillist archive.
I want a summary for about 250 variables and realise it the following way (I know, that I shouldn't use iterations that way in R; but at the moment it's the easiest way for me):


for(i in fb.12.unt[varA1:varZ9]){print (summary(i, na.rm=t))}

Given fb.12.unt is a list or data.frame, lapply(fb.12.unt, summary, na.rm = TRUE) or sapply(fb.12.unt, summary, na.rm = TRUE) might do what you want.

BTW: "na.rm=t" is wrong anyway ...

It works fine, but I don't know which summary corresponds to which variable, because the variable names are not printed. Can somebody give me a hint?

TIA

Regards,

Christoph
