[R] function input as variable name (deparse/quote/paste) ??

[casperyc]

Thank you everyone for your reply.

Like I said in my original post, this is just a demonstrative example of my
'big' self written script.

My 'big' function take several inputs, of which the first 1 is the dataset
and returns a LIST variable 'res<<-list()' to the workspace with many
information.

The names of my actual datasets are NOT in any pattern, like 'dat1', 'dat2',
'dat3'. That's why i wonder if I can modify
the line 'res<<-' in anyway to be 'res.dat<<-' where 'dat' in the first
input. So I can CALL via 'res.dat' (or res.newdata, res.olddata,
res.tmpdata,res.hisdata) in the workspace any time I want to have a look.
