How to assign variable name (of a vector, matrix, array) from element of another vector or by using paste?
Dear All,
My problem is the following
> varname <- c("age","sex","edu","mrt")
> varstates <- c(10,2,4,3) # 10 age groups, 2 sexes, 4 education group and 3
marital status..
Now, I want four variables (vector with length1) named nrage, nrsex, nredu,
nrmrt and assing some values
> for (i in 1:4) paste("nr",varname[i],sep="") <- varstates[i] #this does
not work
I want the following
>nrage
10
>nrsex
2
.. etc
Thanks in advance
Best Regards
Samir K.C.
