Hi, I would like to do the following operations:
variable.df is a character string that contains the name of the data frame that I want to do the following operations on: variable.df <- data.frame(); # I can do the above command using assign( variable.df, data.frame() ) How can I perform the assignment statements below ? colnames(variable.df) = colnames(some.other.df) variable.df = rbind(variable.df, some.other.df) write.table(variable.df, file=some.file) Doing eval( substitute( colnames(var), list(var=as.name(variable.df) ) ) ) didn't get me all the way there. Thanks!
