Hello,
is there an elegant way, how I can convert each row of a data frame into
distinct elements of a list?
In essence, what I'm looking for is something like
rows.to.lists <- function( df ) {
ll <- NULL
for( i in 1:nrow(df) )
ll <- append( ll, list(df[i,]) )
return (ll)
}
but more done more efficiently (the data frame may contain ten-thousands
of rows). I thought about using apply() but this function always returns
a matrix.
Thanks in advance!
Bye,
Sebastian
