How can I rbind vectors matching their column names?

Question

rbind does not check for column names when binding together vectors:

l = list(row1 = c(10, 20), row2 = c(20, 10))
names(l$row1) = c(\"A\", \"B\")
names(l$row         


        

Answer 1

rbind will work if you first change each element of l to a data frame:

do.call("rbind", lapply(l, function(x) data.frame(as.list(x))))

      A  B
row1 10 20
row2 10 20
