Suppose I have a string variable
string='some_string'
Now I want to have a list, where <tag> is the same as the string in
the variable string. I'm wondering if this is possible in R.
list(<tag>=1:3)
data.frame(<tag>=1:3)
The most straightforward way is
x <- list(1:3)
names(x) <- string
y <- data.frame(dummy=1:3)
names(y) <- string
You can also build expressions and parse and evaluate them, but the
lines above are the easiest way.
