Is this what you want?: > li <- list(a=1, b=2, c=3, d=4) > li $a [1] 1 $b [1] 2 $c [1] 3 $d [1] 4
> unlist(li) a b c d 1 2 3 4 > unname(unlist(li)) [1] 1 2 3 4 Regards Søren -----Original Message----- From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On Behalf Of Julio Sergio Santana Sent: 21. august 2012 00:20 To: r-help@r-project.org Subject: [R] Some kind of inverse of "names" I wonder if there exists some kind of inverse of the "names" primitive in R. Let me explain what do I mean: If I create a list: -> li <- list(a=1, b=2, c=3, d=4) then I can have: -> names(li) [1] "a" "b" "c" "d" which is, I guess, some kind of vector, since -> typeof(names(li)) [1] "character" however, I haven't seen something that allows me to get the other side, i.e., the values. Something like: ->VALUES(li) [1] 1 2 3 4 Do you have any comments on this? Thanks, - Sergio.
