Fill a new list in R matching columns and rownames










2















This is my code:



mydatamatrix<-matrix(rnorm(30),nrow=10,ncol=26);colnames(mydatamatrix)<-LETTERS[1:26]
pairs<-matrix(LETTERS[1:20],ncol=2);

mylist <- rep(list(vector(mode = "list", 2)),nrow(pairs))


I would like to fill my mylist list with the collumns values of mydatamatrix matrix but matching with the pairs names.



For example:



mylist[[1]] should have the values of A and K columns of mydatamatrix
And mylist[[1]][1]should be A mylist[[1]][2] should be K.



How can I do this?



And also I would like to name the positions mylist[[k]][j] by the names from mydatamatrix collumns that will fill mylist.



Is it clear?



Any help? Thanks

          We can split the 'pairs' by row and extract the columns of the dataset in a list



          lapply(split(pairs, row(pairs)), function(x) 
          list(mydatamatrix[, x[1]], mydatamatrix[, x[2]]))



          Or assign the already created 'mylist' with the output of extracted values using a for loop



          for(i in seq_along(mylist)) mylist[[i]] <- list(mydatamatrix[, pairs[i,][1]], 
          mydatamatrix[, pairs[i, ][2]])
