Hello,
If you do this after the for loop, you'll get what you want:

paste(tre,collapse="")

(you can use whatever separator you want in the collapse argument)

But you don't even need the for loop, just do this instead of the for loop:

paste("con(",p," == ",c,", ",zest,", ",sep="",collapse="")

Best,
Miguel
