Ah, yes, I missed the generation of intermediate names. You can name the list before as.data.frame, though: l <- rep(list(rep(NA_real_, 10)),3) names(l) <- names as.data.frame(l) or as a one-liner: as.data.frame(structure(rep(list(rep(NA_real_, 10)), 3) , .Names=names)) -- Peter Dalgaard, Professor, Center for Statistics, Copenhagen Business School Solbjerg Plads 3, 2000 Frederiksberg, Denmark Phone: (+45)38153501 Email: pd....@cbs.dk Priv: pda...@gmail.com ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
