[R] vector of Vectors

[Schalk Heunis]

You want to use list:
a = list()
a[[1]] = c(1,2,3)
a[[2]] = c(1,2,3)

Note the [[..]] operator - check the "An Introduction to R" manual for
more details

At any rate, I need to create a data structure (size to be determined at runtime) which I will instantiate and then fill with vectors using a for loop. Clearly I'm new to the R game. Data Frame doesnt seem to be the right tool clearly.
