## Create a function to assign a series of values to a list of objects
## The assign function can only assign one value (could be a vector) to a
name
## Set the environment to be global, otherwise the objects can't be used
outside the function
## List objects that have been created

toto <- function(x,y) {
        for (i in x:y){
                assign(paste("tot", i, sep=""), i*2, envir = .GlobalEnv)
                }}
toto(3,7)
ls(pattern = "^tot.$")
