HI,
It guess ?get() does not work with $ elements.
x1 <- list(a=c(1,2), b = c(2,4), c=c(4,5,6))
#this works
get(paste("x","1",sep=""))["a"]
#$a
#[1] 1 2
#or
get(paste("x","1",sep=""))[[2]]
#[1] 2 4
A.K.

Subject: [R] how to get a value from a list (using paste function)?
Dear my R friends,
I want to get a number from a list using paste function.
In my example,
lambda.rule <- "lambda.1se"
cvtest is a list (result from cv.glmnet)
and
cvtest$lambda.1se
[1] 1.308973
I want to call the value using paste function.
I used get function but there was an error.
test <- get(paste("cvtest$",lambda.rule, sep=""))
Error in get(paste("cvtest$", lambda.rule, sep = "")) :
object 'cvtest$lambda.1se' not found
Do you guys know how to solve this issue?
Thank you so much in advance and merry Christmas!
Soyeon
