The filenames can be done within a loop, like this:
for (id in 1:1000) {
## the filename
fname <- paste('sample', formatC(id,width=4,flag='0'),'.tsv',sep='')
## more stuff
}

Subject: [R] Monte Carlo Simulation
>Hello, R friends...

>I am very new to R, and I need some help. I am trying to construct a

>I need to create 1000 datasets of 1000 subjects with the following
>variables...
>
>Treatment variable - Drawn from a binomial distribution (1 run, prob=.13)
>Covariate 1 - Drawn from a normal distribution (mean=100, sd=16)
>Covariate 2 - Drawn from a normal distribution (mean=200, sd=9)
>Covariates 1 and 2 need to be correlated (say, r=.80)
>Covariate 3 - Drawn from a binomial distribution (1 run, prob=.5)
>Covariate 4 - Drawn from a distribution of discrete variables where 1 has
>an 80% chance of being selected, 2 - 10%, 3 - 5% and 4 - 5%. This
>variable would need to be recoded into 4 binary variables.
>Covariate 5 - Drawn from a normal distribution (mean=84, sd=2)
>Covariate 6 - Drawn from a binomial distribution (1 run, prob=.15)
>Covariate 6 needs to correlate with Covariate 2 (r=.70, or so)
>
>I need each dataset saved as a new datafile with an iterative filename
>(e.g. sample1, sample2, etc.).

>Please help!
