Hi group,

I imported  16 data frames using the function "list.files"

temp <- list.files(path="...........")
myfiles = lapply(temp, read.table,sep = "")

Now I have 16 data set imported in R window.

I want to combine them by row and tried some thing like (Here I am
considering only 20 columns)

for(i in 1:16){
    data<- cbind(myfiles[[i]][,1:20])

}

but it returns only first data set. I can combine them using

data <- cbind(myfiles[[1]][,1:20],myfiles[[2]][1:20],...............)

But  I want in a loop so that I can make the efficient code.

Any kind of suggestion will be great for me.

Thanks
