Dear R People: I have several vectors, sa1, sa2,...sa27 of varying lengths.
I want to produce one vector xener[1:27] which has the minimum of each sa[i]. I'm trying to set up a loop and use the assign statement, but here are my results: > for(i in 1:27) { + xener[i] <- min(assign(paste("sa",i,sep=""))) + } Error in assign(paste("sa", i, sep = "")) : element 2 is empty; the part of the args list of '.Internal' being evaluated was: (x, value, envir, inherits) > Any suggestions would be most welcome.
