Simple one here ... but can't get it to work ... for (i in 1:4){ paste("stuff",[i]),sep="") <- 3 + i }
ls() rm(list=ls()) I just want it to create 4 new variables called stuff1, stuff2, stuff3, stuff4 with the corresponding assignments. I realise that there are more elegant functions but this is just a model of a bigger situation.
