Dear All,
Thanks to an answer which I received from a previous post, I'm now able to
create a series of
environments using the following:
nmes <- c("en1", "en2", "en3")
for(i in nmes) assign(i, new.env(parent = .GlobalEnv))
My next question is how, using "load", can I automatically place data into each
of these
newly created environments.
The following, and variations thereof, does not work:
nmes <- c("en1", "en2", "en3")
for(i in nmes) load(file = "/home/testData/Data.RData", i)
I've tried, among other attempts, to use "as.environment(i)" without success. My
"i" is seen
as a character, but I want it to be seen as the environment which it represents.
More generally as the object it represents...
Try
for(i in nmes) load(file = "/home/testData/Data.RData", get( i ))
