[R] Generate object names from variables

2006-07-14 Thread Georg Otto
Hi, I want to generate object names out of variables in a sort of variable substitution. first i generate some vectors and an empty list: vector.a-c(a,b) vector.b-c(c,d) vector.c-c(e,f) vectors-c(vector.a, vector.b, vector.c) vectors [1] vector.a vector.b vector.c vectorlist-list() What
