R help - May 2010 - reading in all files of a certain type

Hello,

I am wondering if it's possible to read in all files of a certain type
- without specifying their names.
For example, I have 10 .csv files in my working directory.
I would like to read them in and bind them all together. I was
thinking of writing a loop, read in all files, and then bind them.
Is it possible?

Thanks a lot!

Try this:

do.call(rbind, lapply(dir(patt = "\\.csv$"), read.csv))
