Creating data frame from individual files
HI,
May be this helps:
lst1<- structure(list(File1 = structure(list(ColA = c("A", "B"), ColB = c(2.4,
2.1)), .Names = c("ColA", "ColB"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA,
-2L)), File2 = structure(list(colA = c("A", "B"), ColB = c(1.3,
0.4)), .Names = c("colA", "ColB"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA,
-2L))), .Names = c("File1", "File2"))
res<-do.call(cbind,lapply(lst1,`[`,2))
row.names(res)<- unlist(unique(sapply(lst1,`[`,1)))
?colnames(res)<- names(lst1)
?res
#? File1 File2
#A?? 2.4?? 1.3
#B?? 2.1?? 0.4
A.K.

HI: sorry for confusion.? I have 72 files and all 72 files have first identical column. 2nd column format is same but different numbers. every file in 72 files have identical number of rows. (90,799). ColA ? ColB A ? ? ? ?2.4 B ? ? ? ?2.1 File 2: colA ? ColB A ? 1.3 B ? 0.4 I want to have one data frame with the following: ? ? ? ? ?File1 ? File 2? A ? ? ? ?2.4 ? ? ?1.3 B ? ? ? ?2.1 ? ? ? 0.4 Finally I will have a data frame of 90,799 x 72. Thank you for helping.
