Transforming a string to a variable's name? help me newbie...
...45x2x2x8 design.
A dataframe stores the metadata of trials. And each trial has its own
data file: I used "read.table" to import every trial into R as a
dataframe (variable).
Now I dynamically ask R to retrieve trials that fit certain selection
criteria, so I use "subset", e.g.
tmptrialinfo <- subset(trialinfo, (Subject==24 & Filename=="v2msa8"))
The name of the dataframe / variable of an individual trial can be
obtained using:
paste("t",tmptrialinfo[1,2],tmptrialinfo[1,16],".gz",sep="")
Then I get a string:
"t24v2msa8.gz"...
