Extract names of objects from list

Question

I have a list of objects. How do I grab the name of just one object from the list? As in:

LIST <- list(A=1:5, B=1:10)
LIST$A
some.way.cool.function(LIST$         


        

Answer 1

You can just use:

> names(LIST)
[1] "A" "B"

Obviously the names of the first element is just

> names(LIST)[1]
[1] "A"
