R help - Nov 2011 - string to list()

I can get an array of strings for the data that I want using 'paste()'
as
follows:

 

paste('ma', 1:am$arma[2], '=', coef(am)[1:am$arma[2] +
am$arma[1]], sep='')

 

This results in a vector of strings like:

 

[1] "ma1=1.17760133668255"  "ma2=0.649795570407939"
"ma3=0.329456750858276"

 

What I would like is

 

fixed.pars <-
list(ma1=1.17760133668255,ma2=0.649795570407939,ma3=0.329456750858276)

 

Is there an 'R' guru that would be willing to suggest a good way of
doing
this?

 

Thank you.

 

Kevin

Do it in 2 steps:

z <- as.list( coef(am)[1:am$arma[2] + am$arma[1]])
names(z) <- paste("ma",seq_along(z), sep="")
