[R] How to collect arrays in an array?

[ONKELINX, Thierry]

You'll need the [[ operator.

Your.list.name[[3]] gives the third element.

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more
than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to
say what the experiment died of.
~ Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher

The plural of anecdote is not data.
~ Roger Brinner

The combination of some data and an aching desire for an answer does not
ensure that a reasonable answer can be extracted from a given body of
data.

Thanks for a prompt response.
Ok. I see your point. 
However, then next silly question is how to access these elements of
list
dynamically?
suppose I want to access 3rd item or 3rd element of the list (which
would be
my array-3 stored at 3rd position in the list).

Thank you.

Regards,
Suresh
