changing a list element's name during execution in lapply - possible?
Happy New Year, all!
I want to do calculations on each element of a list l, but i want the
returned list element to be named differently after the calculation.
Is it possible to do the renaming somehow within the lapply call?
l <- list(a=NA, b=NA)
lapply(l, function(x) {names(x) <- "new name"; return(x) })
This does not work, any ideas?
TIA
