turning a list of vectors into a data.frame (as rows of the DF)?
...h. I would like NAs as placeholders for "missing" data in the shorter vectors. I think I'm missing something quite basic.
v1 <- c(1,2,3,4)
v2 <- c(1,2)
lst1 <- list(v1,v2)
Of course there is the intuitive:
as.data.frame(lst1)
However, the recycling rule (expectedly) reclycles 1,2 versus using NAs as placeholders.
Then, looking into Teetor's R Cookbook, there is a piece of code that looked (from the description) like it might do the trick:
do.call(rbind, Map(as.data.frame,lst1)
But I get the error:
Error in match.names(clabs, names(xi)) :
