Your example doesn't work here - you didn't show what 'tab' was. Perhaps it was an output of table:
> tab <- table(c(16,16,17,17,17)) > c(n=1, seed=tab[2]) n seed.17 1 3 > c(n=1, seed=unname(tab[2])) n seed 1 3 Bill Dunlap Spotfire, TIBCO Software wdunlap tibco.com > -----Original Message----- > From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On > Behalf > Of Sam Steingold > Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2012 12:53 PM > To: r-help@r-project.org > Subject: [R] c weirdness > > is there a way to avoid c() appending ".0" and ".1" to seed? > --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- > > c("nons"=1, "seed"=3) > nons seed ## good! > 1 3 > > c("nons"=1, "seed"=tab[1]) > nons seed.0 ## don't want ".0"! > 1 2344600 > > c("nons"=1, "seed"=tab[2]) > nons seed.1 ## don't want ".1"! > 1 6843 > > tab > 0 1 > 2344600 6843 > --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- > > -- > Sam Steingold (http://sds.podval.org/) on Ubuntu 12.04 (precise) X > 11.0.11103000 > http://www.childpsy.net/ http://pmw.org.il > http://memri.org http://ffii.org http://openvotingconsortium.org > Islam is a religion of Peace.
