Hi experts, I want to read only the half of my data frame, which I read it from clip board, and save it in a list. I wrote this code but it doesnt work: ck<-read.table("clipboard") datalist<-list() d<-dim(ck)[1] i<-1 repeat { datalist<-c(datalist,ck[i,]) i<-i+2 if(i>d) {break} } datalist [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
You don't need a loop nor a growing object. data(mtcars) mtcars mtcars[seq(1, nrow(mtcars), by = 2), ] ir.

Hi You shall probably use C or similar program for such task. As I understand you want only odd rows. If yes, this will do it for you odd<-seq(1,d,2) datalist<-cd[odd,] If not please explain better your real intention.
