Why in R
e=list(a,b,c,d)
is different than:
e=list(a,b)
e=list(e,c)
e=list(e,d)
?
The second approach can be easily used in a for loop, but it produces different result, and I create 1 object each iteration, so cant use first approach, any hints ?
If you absolutely want to use this approach, you can do this:
# Make up some data
a <- 1:3; b <- 4:5; c <- 6:10; d <- 11:17
# Build up the lists
e0 <- list(a, b, c, d)
e <- list(a, b)
e <- c(e, list(c))
e <- c(e, list(d))
# Compare the two
identical(e0, e) # TRUE
In a real-life case, however, instead of using a loop, you probably would be better off using function from the *apply
family, such as lapply()
, which will return a list of outputs directly.
