do.call(function(x,y) paste0("A",x,"_","B",y),expand.grid(x = A,y = B)) seems to be a place to start. Robust generalization seems a hair tricky -- I'll mull on it. Michael On Fri, May 4, 2012 at 9:10 AM, Johannes Radinger wrote: > Hi, > > it is easiest to explain what I want to do by an example

[R] Generate strings from multiple variables

2012-05-04 Thread Johannes Radinger
Hi, it is easiest to explain what I want to do by an example: lets assume there are two factors/variables: A <- c(1,2,3) B <- c(1,3,3) Now I would like to generate a list of strings that should look like ("A1_B1","A1_B2","A2_B1","A2_B2"). So actually the string contains all possible combinations
