Hello Sarah, Yes, that is what I want. Thanks! Cheers, Rebecca -----Original Message----- From: Sarah Goslee [mailto:sarah.goslee at gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2013 11:21 AM To: Yuan, Rebecca Cc: R help Subject: Re: [R] easy way of paste It looks like you want collapse rather than sep:
list.indep <- data.frame(aa=1:4, dummy1=1:4, dummy2=1:4, bb=1:4, cc=1:4) paste(colnames(list.indep), collapse="+")
[1] "aa+dummy1+dummy2+bb+cc"

Hello, Is there a better way to use paste such as: a = paste(colnames(list.indep)[1],colnames(list.indep)[2],colnames(list.in dep)[3],colnames(list.indep)[4],colnames(list.indep)[5],sep="+")
a
[1] "aa+dummy1+dummy2+bb+cc" I tried a = paste(colnames(list.indep)[1:5],sep="+")
a
[1] "aa" "dummy1" "dummy2" "bb" "cc" But it will not give me the way I want. Thanks, Rebecca
