so we know that R have list() variable, and also know that R has function call names() to give names for variable. For example :
list()
names()
a=
Since @akrun doesn't need any more points, here is an example showing how you can assign names to a list:
lst <- list(a="one", b="two", c=c(1:3)) names(lst) [1] "a" "b" "c" names(lst) <- c("x", "y", "z") > lst $x [1] "one" $y [1] "two" $z [1] 1 2 3
