How to vectorize this for loop and how can I assign result to vector instead of using print function?
mylist <- list(a = letters[1:3], b = LETTERS[1:3], c = c("1", "2", "3")) for (i in seq_along(mylist[[1]])) { for (j in seq_along(mylist[[2]])) { print(mylist[[1]][i]) print(mylist[[2]][j]) print(mylist[[3]]) } } Run version: > mylist <- list(a = letters[1:3], b = LETTERS[1:3], c = c("1", "2", "3")) > mylist $a [1] "a" "b" "c" $b [1] "A" "B" "C" $c [1] "1" "2" "3" > for (i in seq_along(mylist[[1]])) { + for (j in seq_along(mylist[[2]])) { + print(mylist[[1]][i]) + print(mylist[[2]][j]) + print(mylist[[3]]) + } + } [1] "a" [1] "A" [1] "1" "2" "3" [1] "a" [1] "B" [1] "1" "2" "3" [1] "a" [1] "C" [1] "1" "2" "3" [1] "b" [1] "A" [1] "1" "2" "3" [1] "b" [1] "B" [1] "1" "2" "3" [1] "b" [1] "C" [1] "1" "2" "3" [1] "c" [1] "A" [1] "1" "2" "3" [1] "c" [1] "B" [1] "1" "2" "3" [1] "c" [1] "C" [1] "1" "2" "3" > ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
