Hi all, I would like to iterate through a list with named elements and access the names within an lapply / sapply call. One way to do this is iterate through the names and index the list with the name. Is there a way to iterate through the list elements themselves and access the element names within in the function? For example,
mylist <- list("a"=c(1,2),"b"=c(3,4),"c"=c(5,6)) sapply(mylist,function(x){ #get name of list elements ("a", "b", "c") #then do other stuff }) Thanks for your suggestions.
