[R] Batch importing data

[jiangxijixzy]

I want to import data from about 2000 text files, and hope to create a data
frame to make it easy to quote the data.
For example, the files like this
Oil_20030801.txt, Oil_20030804.txt, Oil_20030805.txt … Oil_20120427.txt
The dates aren’t continuous. I want to create the data frame called “Oil”,
like that
Oil20030801<-read.table(“E:/Oil/ Oil_20030801.txt”)
Oil20030804<-read.table(“E:/Oil/ Oil_20030804.txt”)
Oil20030805<-read.table(“E:/Oil/ Oil_20030805.txt”)
…
Oil20120427<-read.table(“E:/Oil/ Oil_20120427.txt”)
It is a time consuming way. How can I perform a convenient way? Thank you!
