Hello Erin,
I think you have explain your goal more detailed. Maybe I am completely
lost but as far as I understand now you only need the command cbind:
m1 <- cbind(dog, dat, tree)
dog cat tree
[1,] 1 2 5
[2,] 2 3 6
[3,] 3 4 7
But I can't imagine that is the solution you are looking for.
Cheers
David

Hello!
I have a cbind type question, please: Suppose I have the following:
dog <- 1:3
cat <- 2:4
tree <- 5:7
and a character vector
big.char <- c("dog","cat","tree")
I want to end up with a matrix that is a "cbind" of dog, cat, and tree.
This is a toy example. There will be a bunch of variables.
I experimented with "do.call", but all I got was
1
2
3
Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I still think that do.call
might be the key, but I'm not sure.
R Version 3-1.3, Windows 7.
Thanks,
Erin
