[R] shorter way of coding

Dear Sarah and R users,
Thanks Sarah for the suggestion. The example you gave me works and I managed to get it to run by modifying the 'lm' to the gam command.
y.list <- list(y1=runif(10), y2 <- runif(10), y3 <- runif(10))
x1 <- 1:10
x2 <- c(11, 15, 17, 2, 18, 6, 7, 8, 12, 10)
lapply(y.list, function(y)gam(y~s(x1,x2, k=100)))
I now face problem of getting the fitted results from the gam command. My original problem for only one y looked like this. Now how do I get to incorporate vis.gam(b) and fitted (b) into my new code?
b<-gam(y~s(x1,x2,k=100),data=dat)
vis.gam(b)
fitted(b)
Many thanks once again.
Mintewab

That's not a reproducible example. Paul suggested a list of formulas,
but I recommended creating a list of y variables.
In your attempt, you didn't include the y in the name of the dependent
variable; that's probably why it doesn't work.
Look at this:
> y.list <- list(y1=runif(10), y2 <- runif(10), y3 <- runif(10))
> x1 <- 1:10
> lapply(y.list, function(y)lm(y ~ x1))
$y1
Call:
lm(formula = y ~ x1)
Coefficients:
(Intercept) x1
0.56392 -0.02586
[[2]]
Call:
lm(formula = y ~ x1)
Coefficients:
(Intercept) x1
0.66375 -0.03519
[[3]]
Call:
lm(formula = y ~ x1)
Coefficients:
(Intercept) x1
0.29106 0.02845

I am actually trying to do interpoliation of climate data where x1 and x2 are my latitude and longitude and sum64-sum 368 are my rainfall observations which I need to regress against x1 and x2. In the previous I was trying to get my story clear so I did not go into details.
