Access lapply index names inside FUN

Question

Is there a way to get the list index name in my lapply() function?

n = names(mylist)
lapply(mylist, function(list.elem) { cat(\"What is the name of this list         


        

Answer 1

Just loop in the names.

sapply(names(mylist), function(n) { 
    doSomething(mylist[[n]])
    cat(n, '\n')
}
