extract element from list by rownames

data.frame((srMT[[3]][1]))[b,][2]

This probably is not ideal, but this works on a list of mine......

## so you can see the structure of my list

str(srMT)

List of 4
 $ mode     : chr "discrete"
 $ ks.stat  : chr "mean"
 $ observed :List of 4
  ..$ filter: num [1:13, 1:4] 0.213 0.207 0.144 0.311 0.24 ...
  .. ..- attr(*, "dimnames")=List of 2
  .. .. ..$ ID_2: chr [1:13] "BC_SP1" "BU1_SP1" "BU2_SP1" "MK_SP1" ...
  .. .. ..$     : chr [1:4] "vel1" "vel2" "vel3" "vel4"
  ..$ chi2  : num [1:3] 6.93e+02 6.93e+02 1.93e-12
  ..$ df    : num [1:3] 36 39 3
  ..$ p     : num [1:3] 0 0 1
 $ bootstrap:List of 6
  ..$ filter   : num [1:13, 1:4, 1:1000] 0.245 0.254 0.247 0.244 0.25 ...
##### LIST just keeps going  and going and going


# as an example 

(srMT[[3]][1])

$filter

  SC_SP1  0.2509970 0.2129797 0.3071544 0.2288689




## some rownames
b <- c("MK_SP1", "SB1_SP1", "SB4_SP1")

## this works to pull them out based on row names

data.frame((srMT[[3]][1]))[b,]

        filter.vel1 filter.vel2 filter.vel3 filter.vel4
MK_SP1    0.3114887   0.2503257   0.2177326   0.2204530

SB4_SP1   0.2958040   0.2358855   0.2433465   0.2249641




I hope this helps, good luck!

Hi,

I've a list of list.

I want to extract an element by the rownames.

I can extract it by:

data[[1]][[1]][[4]][1]


But I want to exctract it by a command like this:

data[[1]][["B0"]][["smac"]][["cont"]][1]

It's possible?


Thanks,

Alfredo
