Douglas -
To answer your question directly, use perhaps combination of ?assign and
?paste.
In general, you usually do not have to do this sort of thing, but can
use one of the apply family of functions (apply, sapply, lapply, mapply)
to do whatever you want with shorter, cleaner code and fewer objects
polluting your workspace. Since I do not know the structure of your
data, I cannot really help any further at this point.
Best,
Erik Iverson

Hello,
I am trying to assign a variable name (x1,x2,x3...) in a loop statement
that is based on a counter (counter is based on the number of hours
within the datafile). The x1,x2 data will later be called for plotting
the data. Below is a clip of the for loop I am using, any suggestions?
k = 1
for (i in 1:length(stats$hour)) {
"x(i)" = dataset[k,(3:15)]
k = k+1
}
Thanks,
Doug
