[R] Merge list to list - as list

If z is the result then z[[i]] is formed from x[[i]] and y[[i]] using
the previous solution, viz.

z <- list()
z[[1]] <- mapply(cbind, x[[1]], y[[1]], SIMPLIFY = FALSE)
z[[2]] <- mapply(cbind, x[[2]], y[[2]], SIMPLIFY = FALSE)

or with a for loop (which is similar to the code you posted below except
the extraneous j loop is removed since its already incorporated
in the mapply):

z <- list()
for(i in seq(along = x))
   z[[i]] <- mapply(cbind, x[[1]], y[[1]], SIMPLIFY = FALSE)

or reducing the loop to a lapply:

lapply(seq(along = x), function(i) mapply(cbind, x[[i]], y[[i]],
SIMPLIFY = FALSE))
