[R] for loop for file names

I am trying to load binary files in the following fashion load("pred/Pred_pres_a_indpdt") load("pred/Pred_pres_b_indpdt") load("pred/Pred_pres_c_indpdt") load("pred/Pred_pres_d_indpdt") load("pred/Pred_pres_e_indpdt") load("pred/Pred_pres_f_indpdt") but I would like to set up a for loop to repla

Re: [R] for loop for file names

I'm just guessing but what about letters <- letters[1:6] mynames <- paste("pred/Pred_pres_",letters,"_indpdt") for(i in 1:6) load(mynames[i]) --- On Thu, 7/30/09, waltzmiester wrote: > From: waltzmiester > Subject: Re: [R] for loop for file names
