 Hello All,

 I have multiple "list of lists" in the form of

 Mylist1[[N]][[K]]$Name_i,

 with N=1..6, K=1..3, and i=1..7. Each Name_i is a matrix. I have 30 of
 these objects Mylist1, Mylist2, ...

 I would like to merge these lists by each Name_i using rbind, but I
 couldn't figure out how to do it. What I want at the end is a single "list
 of lists", again in the form of Mylist[[N]][[K]]$Name_i. Manually doing it
 is not feasible given the large number of Mylist objects.


Turn them into a single array of mode 'list', then do the rbind'ing, and save the result as an array (or see ?relist for imposing the nested structure of the orignal lists)

Something like:

I see a few hiccups below.

Maybe Alex P. should include a minimal, self-contained example that RespondeRs could try out...


objs <- paste('MyList',1:30,sep='')
big.list <- lapply( objs, get )
for (i in 1:4) big.list <- unlist(big.list,recursive=FALSE)

for (i in 1:3) ...

dim( big.list ) <- c(30, 6, 3, 7 )

dim( big.list ) <- rev( c(30, 6, 3, 7 ) )

res <- apply( big.list, 2:4, rbind )
dim(res) <- c( 30, 3, 7 )

res <- apply( big.list, 1:3, function(x) list( do.call( rbind, x ) ))

 Thanks in advance,
