I am running into a problem with allocating these files to a list as they are read in through a for loop. I know I am probably doing something wrong, but I can't figure out what. I know this is not reproducible. I am ending up with a data frame of the very last file to be read in. I know it is in the indexing, but I can't wrap my head around it. thanks for all of the help,
