This is a question I have wanted to ask for a while but hesitated because I was sut sure I would find the answer on my own, but as of yet...no dice.
1) Is there a way to use the loop number in naming things in R. Specifically I have a simulation that has two loops. I would like to be able to write out the results to a csv file after each iteration. something like: for (i in 1:10){ exampleMatrix <- matrix(runif(25, 0, 1),5, 5) write.csv(exampleMatrix, file = "resultsMatrix_i.csv") } Where I would get 10 csv files named resultsMatrix_1, resultsMatrix_2 ... resultsMatrix_10. 2) On a similar note is there a way to use the loop number when naming things. something like: for (i in 1:10){ exampleMatrix_i <- matrix(runif(25, 0, 1),5, 5) } Where I would then have 10 matrices in memory with the names exampleMatrix_1, exampleMatrix_2 ... exampleMatrix_10.
