I have an array called filesBox. I want to take each element of the first column and assign a dataset to it.
For example : filesBox[4,1] returns [1] "fileR" Then I want to assign "fileR" which exists as a text file to the R object "fileR" like this : filesBox[4,1] <- read.table(paste(dir2, filesBox[4,1], sep=""), header = FALSE) But this doesn't work because filesBox[4,1] is an element of an array but I want it as a new R (effectively) data frame. Any ideas please ? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/using-an-element-of-an-array-as-a-new-object-tp14884435p14884435.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
