Hi,

I have a list of lists that I would like to convert into a dataframe such that the name(?) of the individual lists is replicated as rows with each
item in the list listed in another column.

I have provided a partial from my list: (let's say the list is called
"help.me")

Actually only a list of numeric vectors:

new.df <- stack(as.data.frame(help.me))

2                          27
2                          11

2                          12
2                          15
.                           .

3                          18
3                          27
3                          12

.                           .
