R help - Apr 2012 - read multiple dataset at one time

Hi,

Is it possible to read, say 100 dat files in one time? I want to combine these
100 data set into one single dat file.

Any suggestions?

Thank you very much.

Without more information on the format of the files, or any other thing, it
is hard to give a full answer.
But shortly: yes, it is possible.

With a bit more details:
You can combine:
readLines (or read.table, or what ever will work for your file), with
list.files
And run through them with a for loop.

Now that I am writing this, I am wondering if it could be possible to do
this in some parallel function, instead of with a loop...
