Hi there, I am trying to import 100 files with the names of "vpn 1 .dat" to "vpn 100 .dat" into a respective table calld vpn1 to vpn100.
I therfore have created a variable X<-1:100 I not want to use X as a subtitute for the number in my filename, so that I have to write only one function and it does the operation with all files. I have tried every combination i could imagine to include the string X into the file name: vpn'X' , vpn"X" , vpn[X] , and so on, but R never did what I wanted it too. vpn"X"<-read.table("vpn "X" .dat") So is there a way to do this in R??? or should I use an intirely new aproach?
