1. I have forwarded this to the list in order to increase your chance of getting a response. I hope that is OK. 2. I would have thought that by putting in the effort to understand the tutorial is how a complete beginner advances beyond that stage. Cheers, Bert On Thu, Feb 28, 2013 at 1:43 PM, Sahana Srinivasan

Um. Yes. I wouldn't have posted without having looked stuff up. Most documentation is written in a way that is a little tough for a complete beginner to understand. On Thu, Feb 28, 2013 at 9:41 PM, Bert Gunter <gunter.berton at gene.com> wrote:

Hello :)
I'm just starting out with R and would appreciate your help with a
couple
of problems I am running into.
I have used Sys.glob to get a list of all filenames having a particular
file extension (in my case, *.txt)
I would now like to use this list in the following manner: I would like
to
use each filename from the list and open that file into a tab separated
matrix and proceed.
How can I go about iterating through each filename in the list and then
opening each of the files?
I believe as.matrix can be used to open the txt file as a table, is that
correct?
I know these are beginner queries but I would love your help. Thank you
in
advance :)
