To be just a bit more explicit, see (untested) code. Lists are quite powerful data structures, so learn to use them well. mygal_nb <- list() myweight <- list() for (i in 1:6) { mygal_nb[[i]] <- read.gal(mygalfile[i], override.id = TRUE) myweight[[i]] <- nb2listw(mygal_nb[[i]]) } Sean ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
