Given this interactive session: > an<-ls(pat="anova.ag.m2529") > an [1] "anova.ag.m2529.az" "anova.ag.m2529.can" "anova.ag.m2529.fl" > print(anova.ag.m2529.az) Analysis of Variance Table

Does it need to be dereferenced in some way to indicate that it's not a string but an actual variable living inside the workspace?: > for(x in an) {print(x)} [1] "anova.ag.m2529.az" [1] "anova.ag.m2529.can" [1] "anova.ag.m2529.fl" I'm trying to get this working interactively first, but ultimately I need to put it into an Rscript so that I can use dynamic listings and for loops to print everything. I'd also be happy if I could pull just the Pr out, as I could interactively like so: > print(anova.ag.m2529.az$Pr) [1] 0.004392059 NA So what am I misunderstanding about how the language works? I've been all over the web and through the usingR.pdf file but can't find an example that shows something like what I'm trying to do. What exactly (data frame, table, function, character string, etc.) is stored in 'anova.ag.m2529.az' if the commands that created it were: > aov.m2529.az=aov(year~time,data=ag.m2529.az) > anova.ag.m2529.az=anova(aov.m2529.az) Much thanks in advance. ______________________________________________ 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.
