HI,
If you want to combine vectors "x" and "y" into a list,
may be this also helps:
x.1<-1:3
x.2<-1:4
x.3<-5:10
y.1<-5:6
y.2<-8:10
ls()
# [1] "a" "a1" "L" "mat1" "n" "vecs" "x.1" "x.2" "x.3" "y.1"
#[11] "y.2"
lapply(strsplit(ls()[grep("x|y",ls())],""),function(x)
get(paste(x,collapse="")))
#[[1]]
#[1] 1 2 3
#
#[[2]]
#[1] 1 2 3 4
#
#[[3]]
#[1] 5 6 7 8 9 10
#
#[[4]]
#[1] 5 6
#
#[[5]]
#[1] 8 9 10
A.K.

Hello,
Try the following.
x.1 <- 1:3
y.1 <- 1:4
x.2 <- 5:10
vecs <- ls()[grep("^x\\.[[:digit:]]+$", ls())]
lapply(vecs, function(.x) assign(.x, get(.x)))
Then you can use vecs to attribute names() to the result.
Hope this helps,
Rui Barradas
