Hi folks,
I thought I recalled a request for turning a character string into an
object name as in:
x$as.name("y")<-1:4
OR
x<-data.frame(as.name("y")=1:4)
However, as.name and a few other uninformed attempts didn't even come
close. A search of "character to name" produced no helpful functions.
This isn't a very urgent request, but if anyone knows some trick to
perform this transformation, I would like to hear about it. Thanks.
Jim
