I have a list d, in which the names of each elements are single characters, and the actual elements are bit sequences representing those characters. If I type d[1], I get the name and the bit sequence. If I type d[[1]], I get only the bit sequence.
d[1] returns a list of length 1, while d[[1]] returns only the element.
What I want is some way to be able to get the name of the element, preferably by specifying an index into the array.
e.g.
> d A B C "00000" "00001" "0001"
I want some way of saying "give me the name for element number 2" and it should return B.
names(B)[2]

BTW: If all list elements are character of length 1, why are you not using a character vector instead?
cheers,
