Hi,
Try this:
set.seed(24)
 lst1<-lapply(1:4,function(x) 
as.data.frame(matrix(sample(1:20,20,replace=TRUE),ncol=5)))
 names(lst1)<- LETTERS[1:4]

res<-lapply(list(c("A","B"),c("C","D")), function(x) do.call(rbind,lst1[x]))
 res
#[[1]]
 #   V1 V2 V3 V4 V5
#A.1  6 14 17 14  4
#A.2  5 19  6 14  1

Subject: [R] rbinding some elements from a list and obtain another list

Hi everybody,



I have a list, where every element of this list is a data frame.



An example:



Mylist<-list(A=data.frame, B=data.frame, C=data.frame, D=data.frame)



I want to rbind some elements of this list.

As an example:



Output<-list(AB=data.frame, CD=data.frame)



Where

AB=rbind(A,B)

CD=rbind(C,D)





I’ve tried:



f<-function(x){

  for (i in seq(1,length(names(x)),2)){

    aa<-do.call(rbind,x[i:i+1])

    aa

  }}

bb<-f(mylist)



or



f<-function(x){

  for (i in seq(1,length(names(x)),2)){

    aa[i]<-do.call(rbind,x[i:i+1])

    list(aa[i])

    }}

bb<-f (mylist)



but it doesn’t works!!!!



f<-function(x){

+   for (i in seq(1,length(names(x)),2)){

+     aa<-do.call(rbind,x[i:i+1])

+     aa

+   }}

> bb<-f(mylist)

> bb

NULL

> f<-function(x){

+   for (i in seq(1,length(names(x)),2)){

+     aa<-do.call(rbind,x[i:i+1])

+     aa

+   }}

> bb<-f(mylist)

>

> f<-function(x){

+   for (i in seq(1,length(names(x)),2)){

+     aa[i]<-do.call(rbind,x[i:i+1])

+     list(aa[i])

+   }}

> bb<-f(mylist)
