cbind question, please
Hello Erin, I think you have explain your goal more detailed. Maybe I am completely lost but as far as I understand now you only need the command cbind: m1 <- cbind(dog, dat, tree) dog cat tree [1,] 1 2 5 [2,] 2 3 6 [3,] 3 4 7 But I can't imagine that is the solution you are looking for. Cheers David

Hello!
I have a cbind type question, please: Suppose I have the following:
dog <- 1:3
cat <- 2:4
tree <- 5:7
and a character vector
big.char <- c("dog","cat","tree")
I want to end up with a matrix that is a "cbind" of dog, cat, and tree.
This is a toy example. There will be a bunch of variables.
I experimented with "do.call", but all I got was
1
2
3
Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I still think that do.call
might be the key, but I'm not sure.

Thanks,
