R help - May 2010 - converting an objects list

Hello,

I would like to convert an objects list  such as  objects() or ls()  that
outputs    "a101"    "a102"    "a104"   
"a107"    "a109"

to read within a list statement as follows :  list(a101,a102,a104,a107,a109)

Thanks

Tony

Hi Tony,
Try this:

x<-1:3
y<-letters[4:7]
z<-factor(c("fl","go","tw"))
result<-sapply(objects(),"get")

Jim,

Thank you very much for your prompt reply.  This does exactly what I needed.

There is a steep learning curve going from SAS to R.
I had tried this approach before but did not include the "get"
argument.  I had never seen that used that before.

Tony
