Hi I have the smililar question. I have a list: my_list <- list(name="Fred", wife="Mary", no.children=3, child.ages=c(4,7,9))
> my_list $name [1] "Fred" $wife [1] "Mary" $no.children [1] 3 $child.ages [1] 4 7 9 Now I want to search "Fred" and get attribute of that value which is 'name'. how do I get it. > match(my_list,"Fred") [1] 1 NA NA NA my thinking stops right here... list operations in R is too tough to digest and there is not good documentations. Could any one please help. thanks Srini --- Benilton Carvalho <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > gene.pair.tf.lst[sapply(gene.pair.tf.lst, "[[", > "sig.cor")] > > b > > > On Mar 12, 2008, at 5:24 PM, Mark W Kimpel wrote: > > > I have a very long list that I'd like to subset > based on a logical > > value > > within each element.
