Looping and paste
... and you can of course do the assignment: Bndy <- paste (BndY,"to",50+seq_len(BndY), "mN", sep = " ") "An Introduction to R" tells you about such fundamentals and should be a first read for anyone learning R. --- Bert

Don't do this! ?paste() is vectorized. paste (BndY,"to",50+seq_len(BndY), "mN", sep = " ") Cheers, Bert On Wed, Nov 23, 2011 at 3:31 PM, B77S <bps0002 at auburn.edu> wrote:

Dear R helpers
I'm trying to make up some labels for plot from this vector
BndY<-seq(from = 18900,to= 19700, by = 50)
using
Ylab<-for(i in BndY) {c((paste(i," to ",i+50,"mN")))}
but the vector created is NULL
However if i use
for(i in BndY) {print(c(paste(i," to ",i+50,"mN")))}
I can see the for loop is making the labels I'm looking for but not sure
on my error in assigning them to a vector
Thanks in advance
