A more detailed example: Say I would like to read in data files that are set-up identically and have identical (but somewhat) different text names (see below):
data_1 <- read.csv("data1.txt") data_2 <- read.csv("data2.txt") data_3 <- read.csv("data3.txt") How do I automate this process? (I assume the way I make R understand that the data file extension is to be read as a number rather than a string is the same for things like applying functions to matrices with different extensions, e.g. data_i, i = 1,2,3) -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Using-changing-names-in-loop-in-R-tp3030132p3030412.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
