The “list” Function in R

• Package: Base R (no specific package required)

• Purpose: Creates a list, an ordered collection of objects.

• General Class: Data Manipulation

• Required Argument(s):

• Objects to be included in the list.

• Notable Optional Arguments:

• None

• Example:

• # Example data for using the list function
  names <- c("Alice", "Bob", "Charlie")
  ages <- c(25, 30, 22)
  
  # Create a list with two elements
  my_list <- list(Names = names, Ages = ages)
  
  # Display the result
  print(my_list)

• In this example, the list function is used to create a list (my_list) with two elements, “Names” and “Ages.” The elements of the list are populated with data from the vectors names and ages. Lists in R can contain different types of objects and are a versatile data structure used for various purposes, including storing and organizing heterogeneous data.
