for (i in 1:10) {
    assign(paste0(\"variable\", i), i )}

I now need to us

Answer 1

That is the wrong way to handle related items. Better to use a list or dataframe, but you will probably find out why in due course. For now:

do.matrix <- do.call(rbind, lapply( ls(patt="variable"), get) )

Or:

do.matrix <- do.call(rbind, lapply( paste0("variable", 1:10) , get) )
