Dear friends - I have a very simple question - I generate a number of dataframes with identical names and want to combine them into one large dataframe with the same names - here is an example DF <- data.frame(a=rnorm(10),b=runif(10),ID=0) for (i in 1:10){ DF <- DF+rbind(data.frame(a=rnorm(10),b=runif(10),ID=i))} - the dataframe do not grow as I thought it would. How would I do this? All best wishes Troels Ring Nephrology Aalborg Denmark
Hi Maybe little bit of studying how functions work can be useful rbind uses to bind two objects together, however you give it only one. Use DF <- rbind(DF, data.frame(a=rnorm(10),b=runif(10),ID=i)) instead.

This will work, although depending on what you are trying to do, there may be a better way:> DF <- data.frame(a=rnorm(10),b=runif(10),ID=0) > for (i in 1:10){+ DF <- rbind(DF, data.frame(a=rnorm(10),b=runif(10),ID=i))}> str(DF)'data.frame': 110 obs. of 3 variables: $ a : num 0.792 0.141 -1.091 -0.918 1.265 ... $ b : num 0.5935 0.695 0.075 0.0827 0.852 ... $ ID: num 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ...

Try reading and following the Help file, ?rbind.data.frame. You are inventing your own syntax, not using R's. Incidentally, growing the frames as you do is generally a bad idea. Search r-help archives for why. Cheers, Bert Bert Gunter "Data is not information. Information is not knowledge.
