Hi, all Basically, I have unknown number of data that need to be imported and collapsed row-wisely.
The code below works fine, however the "rbind" function may require 50 arguments if there are 50 data files... Thus, I would like to explore whether there are any methods in using dynamic objects (i.e from the resulting objects in the for loop) as an argument in the *"rbind"* function. setwd(.........) import.files <- c("a.txt", "b.txt", "c.txt", "d.txt", "e.txt") for (i in 1:length(import.files)) { assign(paste("imp", i, sep = "."), read.delim(eval(paste(".\\", import.files[i], sep = "")), header = TRUE)) } combined <- rbind(*imp.1, imp.2, imp.3, imp.4, imp.5, imp.6*) Your expertise in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.
