I have a tightly coupled collection of variables with different lengths and types (some characters and others numerics). I looked at the documentation for data.frame, but indicates that it expects all variables to have the same length, i.e. number of elements.
I think you are looking for the list obiect (the data.frame is a
particular list with the constrain that each element have to be of the
same length).
See:

Ciao,
domenico
I was hoping the "See Also" documentation for data.frame would have helped, but it did not have any good leads.
Here is a list of data I would like to store together:
(FileName (character string),
HighValue (numeric),
LowValue (numeric),
Units (character),
OthersValues (array of numerics),
Descriptor (character string))
By any chance is there a generic object type feature within R to store such data together in one variable?
Thank you for any details and leads you can provide.
