Thanks guys for the help, I'm going to go with Patrick Burns answer because
it seems to work the best for my situation, but these all seem like they
should work.

Patrick's solution is similar to Gabor's, but, personally,
I favour Gabor's. Seems neatest and simplest to me.

I have a vector d of unknown length, and a list b of unknown length. I
would like to replace every element of b with d. Simply writing b<-d does
not work as R tries to fit every element of d to a different element of d,
and b<-rep(d,length(b)) does not work either as it makes a list of
length length(d)*length(b) not a list of length(b). I know how to do this
with a for loop, but I feel that there has to be a more efficient way. Any
suggestions?
