Hi guys,
I want to create variable on the fly: for example
for (i in 1:10) {
cat(paste("VAR",i,sep=""))
}
Will print VAR1, VAR2 etc up to VAR10. However I want to make these into
variables, and then give them a value, for example:
vect = c(10:20)
for (i in 1:10) {
cat(paste("VAR",i,sep="")) = vect[i]
}
This is almost a candidate for a FAQ: see
It *is* FAQ 7.21.
