Hi,

I have a character vector that contains the names of several objects that I would like to pass to a function (specifically, the ridge function in the survival package, but cbind is a similar example). I've been struggling with how to do this so that the object values get interpreted by the function, rather than the object names.

For example,
x1 <- 1:4
x2 <- 2:5
x3 <- 3:6
xs <- c("x1", "x2", "x3")

If I wanted to cbind(x1, x2, x3) without typing this out, how would I do it?

Thanks very much!
