Hi to all

I need a string like
temp <- paste("m1","m2","m3",sep=",")
But i must know how many items are in the string,afterwards
the other option would be to use a vector
temp <- c("m1","m2","m3")
No problem to get the count of items but I must get afterwards the string "m1,m2,m3" No problem to build the string with a loop, but it should be more easy but it seems that I am looking to the wrong functions.

Hi Knut,
Not as easy as I thought it would be, but:

mlist<-as.list(paste("m",1:sample(5:10,1),sep=""))
do.call("paste",c(mlist,sep=","))
