maybe this should also be a FAQ because i've seen it a lot since I've
been on this list ?
assign each data.frame to a component of a list, rather than to a
component of a dataframe. you also need paste to get the number.
listDFs<-list()
for ( y in 3:10 ) {
listDFs[[y]]<-read.table(paste("text1",y,sep=""),header=TRUE if there
are headings, whateverelse)
}
listDFs[[1]] will then contain the first data frame, listDFs[[2]] the
second etc.

Hi,
I have a couple of text and would like to automate of reading these
multiple
files using
(namely; text1.txt, text2.txt....)
for(y in 3:10){
data$y<-read.table('text$y.txt')}
But it seems not allow. Any idea?
Thanks.
