[R] Collection of lm()s

try something like the following:

x <- runif(1000, -3, 3)
y <- 2 + 3 * x + rnorm(1000)
f <- gl(10, 100)

lm.lis <- vector("list", 10)
for (i in 1:10) {
     lm.lis[[i]] <- lm(y ~ x, subset = f == as.character(i))
}

sapply(lm.lis, coef)
sapply(lm.lis, fitted)


I hope it helps.

Best,
Dimitris
