Hi there, I have a problem with assign(). Here is the demo code:
for (i in 1:10) { # create a list with variable name as list_1, list_2, ..., etc. assign(paste("list_", i, sep = ""), list()) # I hope to assign 5 to list_?[[1]], but I don't know how to code it. # list_1[[1]] <- 5 # works, however assign(paste("list_", i, "[[1]]", sep = "", 5) # does not work } How to do? Is there any alternatives? Many thanks!
