Dear all I am looking for a shorter way and more elegant to write the following
for (i in c(1:length(Shadowlist))){ filename<-paste('/home/apa/maps/',model,i,'.mat',sep="") varname<-paste(model,'_shadow',i,sep="") eval(parse(text=paste('writeMat(filename,',varname,'=Shadowlist[[i]])',sep=""))) } actually I do not like eval at the end but I wanted to control the varname inside the writeMat command writeMat(filename,varname=Shadowlist[[i]]) ______________________________________________ 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.
