[R] How to Create Nested Data Frame

You're right, it's not exactly what you wanted.
But... data.frames are lists, so you would access each element of it as
you intended to:
HIV$hiv.dat1$predictions
My opinion is that it's easier to work with data.frames when possible
(as opposed to lists), and I don't see why you would break down the
columns of the data.frames. Plus you asked for nested data.frames.
But maybe you do need to separate the columns of a data.frame, and you
could do it like this:
HIV <- list(hiv.dat1=as.list(dat1), hiv.dat2=as.list(dat2))
