There is no "lab=" argument for assign() hence the error. Did someone
provide you with example code that suggested such a thing? remove lab=
entirely or replace it with x= to make your code work. More generally type
?assign or args(assign) to see what the arguments for a function are.
More generally, this sort of thing may be best handled in a list rather than
an set of independent variables.
