still no answer? I´ll try to be more precise and will ask on stack-overflow too...
I´ve got multiple data.frames of gps- and temperature-data within a list. One data.frame looks like: GPS: date time x.lat x.lon 1 22.05.11 13:50:37 53.57908 10.034599 2 22.05.11 13:50:38 53.57906 10.034633 temp: date time temp 1 22.05.11 13:50:38 21.6120 2 22.05.11 13:50:39 21.6070 So I have two lists, one with multiple gps-data.frames and one with multiple temp-dataframes. I used lapply to manipulate both lists, but can´t merge temp and gps to one big list, containing all data.frames, for only time-stamps which exists in both list, like for the above example only 13:50:38 exists in both: GPS+temp: date time x.lat x.lon temp 1 22.05.11 13:50:38 53.57906 10.034633 21.6070 For the single data-frames that worked just fine with: both <- merge(gps,temp) For the two lists of data.frames I first tried an lapply over both lists...something like both <- lapply(temp, gps, function(x){x <- merge(x);x}) Then I tried it with both <- merge.list(gps,temp) but this doesn´t work either. It just transfers the first list "gps" to both Thanks for any hint, Thomas -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/merging-lists-within-lists-via-time-stamp-tp3712631p3727496.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
