After getting one list done, I am now struggling to form a data frame in C.
I tried to do a list of lists which gives me : $<NA> $<NA>[[1]] [1] "BID" $<NA>[[2]] [1] 0.6718 $<NA>[[3]] [1] 3e+06 $<NA> $<NA>[[1]] [1] "BID" $<NA>[[2]] [1] 0.6717 $<NA>[[3]] [1] 5e+06 $<NA> $<NA>[[1]] [1] "BID" $<NA>[[2]] [1] 0.6717 $<NA>[[3]] [1] 17200000 and then as.data.frame them in R but this gives me > print(l); X0.type X0.price X0.volume X1.type X1.price X1.volume X2.type X2.price 1 BID 0.6723 3e+06 BID 0.6722 5e+06 BID 0.67195 X2.volume X3.type X3.price X3.volume X4.type X4.price X4.volume X5.type 1 19400000 BID 0.6723 3e+06 BID 0.6722 5e+06 BID X5.price X5.volume X6.type X6.price X6.volume X7.type X7.price X7.volume 1 0.6723 3e+06 BID 0.6723 3e+06 BID 0.67195 19400000 X8.type X8.price X8.volume X9.type X9.price X9.volume X10.type X10.price 1 BID 0.6723 3e+06 BID 0.67215 1e+07 BID 0.6723 X10.volume X11.type X11.price X11.volume X12.type X12.price X12.volume 1 5e+06 BID 0.67215 1e+07 BID 0.6723 3e+06 and so on. Is the only way in C to do this or is there a better way of creating a 2 dimensional data frame with names columns? I could not find a "data.frame" object so I assume one has to use lists but I can't see how to get a 3 column list as the example below shows: a b d 1 1 4 7 2 2 5 8 3 3 6 9 Tom -- Dr. Thomas McCallum Systems Architect, Level E Limited ETTC, The King's Buildings Mayfield Road, Edinburgh EH9 3JL, UK Work +44 (0) 131 472 4813 Fax: +44 (0) 131 472 4719 http://www.levelelimited.com Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Level E is a limited company incorporated in Scotland.
