Hi,
Is the following function built in somewhere?
concat = function(v) {
res = ""
for (i in 1:length(v))
res = paste(res,v[i],sep="")
res
}
e.g.
> concat(c("12","3","45"))
[1] "12345"
Cheers,
Andy

Hi, Andy
I am a little confused, why don't you just use paste() directly?
> paste("12","3","45",sep="")
produce the same result with your concat.
