Hi, Try this: list1<-list(c(50000, 101), c(1e+05, 46), c(150000, 31), c(2e+05, 17), c(250000, 19), c(3e+05, 11), c(350000, 12), c(4e+05, 25), c(450000, 19), c(5e+05, 16))
res<-t(sapply(list1,function(x) x)) res # [,1] [,2] #[1,] 50000 101 #[2,] 100000 46 #[3,] 150000 31 #[4,] 200000 17 #[5,] 250000 19 #[6,] 300000 11 #[7,] 350000 12 #[8,] 400000 25 #[9,] 450000 19 #[10,] 500000 16 is.matrix(res) #[1] TRUE #or res1<-sapply(list1,function(x) x) is.matrix(res1) #[1] TRUE A.K. ----- Original Message ----- From: Sam Steingold <s...@gnu.org> To: r-help@r-project.org Cc: Sent: Tuesday, December 4, 2012 3:09 PM Subject: [R] list to matrix?
