R help - May 2010 - question about 'write.table'

I have a question about the "write.table"

I have 100 data.frames, loci1, loci2, loci3.............,loci100. 
now, I want to print these data.frames to 100 separate files, and the names
of the files are also loci1, loci2, loci3,......., loci100.

how to perform this under a "for" loop?
say,
for (i in 1:100) {
   write.table(...., file='...', ........)
}

thank you,

karena

for (i in 1:100){
   write.table(get(paste('loci', i, sep='')),
file=paste('loci', i, sep=''))
}

What is the problem that you are trying to solve?

	[[alternative HTML version deleted]]

This could work

out <- c()
for (a in 1:10){
out[a] <- paste("loci",a,sep="") 
write.table(out[a],file=out[a],row.names=FALSE,col.names=FALSE)}
