[R] how to create many objects with sequencial names?

[Wensui Liu]

Hi, Jim,

It is you again. I couldn't remember how many times you answered my
silly questions. ^_^

I am not sure assign() is what I want. Say, if I want to create 1000
linear model objects with names lm1, lm2....lm1000, it seems assign
can't solve it.

But your second solution is close to what I am looking for.

Any idea?

Thanks.
