Limit of matrix + naming

Looking at length(list(2:305)) and str(list(2:305)) can be instructive.  You
don't need the list(), and you probably want to use `legal' names for
variables.

Hi all,

I have read a data matrix of 304 x 404 using read.table.  When I am
trying to name the colnames, with first try colnames(L5)<-list(2:305),

I keep getting error message such as 

Error in "colnames<-"(`*tmp*`, value = list(c(2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 
7, 8, 9,  :

        length of 'dimnames' [2] not equal to array extent

and I don't know why.  But, if I look at the original names 
in terms of
V1, V2, the rownames are repeated again after V256.  Is there a
limitation?  

Thanks.

Yen Lin
