assign a list using expression?
I think this is glossing over 9.7 of 'The R Inferno'. You aren't telling us what you really want to achieve. It seems hard for me to believe that the approach you are taking is going to be the easiest route to whatever that is.

Dear R-users, I would like to assign elements to a list in the following manner: mylist <- list(a = a, b = b, c = c) To do this I tried myexpr <- expression(a = a, b = b, c = c) mylist <- list( eval(myexpr) ) It ends up by overwriting a when b is assigned and b when c is assigned. Additionally the element of the list does not have a name. Could you tell me why this is the case? Thank you very much in advance! Best regards, Nils
