[R] Working with lists

[William Vedder]

Greetings All,

I'm stuck and would appreciate some help.

After writing a function to generate a random sample from vector
"rand1":
> f<-function(i) {y<-sample(rand1,296,replace=F)}

and using the function to generate multiple samples from rand1 and store
the results in list "l":
> l<-lapply(1:100,f)

I can't get the next step accomplished; I'd like to sort each of the
generated samples.  I've tried:
> sort(l)

but get the msg:
Error in sort(l) : `x' must be atomic

I've tried numerous other approaches (converting l to a dataframe and
trying to work with it, eg) with no success.

I've the documentation on lists and dataframes and vectors, etc but
still must not be understanding these correctly.  Can someone give me a
clue as to how to proceed...

Best,

Bill
