Assign dynamic variable names to a list where each variable contains results-CodePudding

Context: I'd like to save the results of a Likelihood ratio test for a multinomial logistic regression in several dynamic variables, but I'm not sure how I could do that. This is what I've been trying:

library(lmtest)
indels = c("C.T","A.G","G.A","G.C","T.C","C.A","G.T","A.C","C.G","A.del","TAT.del","TCTGGTTTT.del","TACATG.del","GATTTC.del")


my_list = list()

for (i in 1:length(indels)) {
      assign(paste0("lrtest_results_",indels[i]), my_list[[i]]) = lrtest(multinom_model_completo, indels[i])
}

I was basically trying to save each variable (with the name lrtest_results_ the dynamic part of the variable name which depends on the vector indels) in a list using the assign method and paste0, but it doesn't seem to be working. Any help is very welcome!

CodePudding user response：

The best way is to lapply the test function to each element of the vector indels and assign the names after.

my_list <- lapply(indels, \(x) lrtest(multinom_model_completo, x))
names(my_list) <- paste0("lrtest_results_", indels)
