Hi Olufemi, I sounds like you have a data frame (let's call it "mydata") with at least three elements (columns). You may be trying to use c() in this way:
y1to3<-c(y1,y2,y3) in which case it won't work. However: y1to3<-c(mydata$y1,mydata$y2,mydata$y3) might do what you want, substituting whatever the name of your data frame is for "mydata".
