as.dlist(items, nparts = NULL)

as.DList(items, nparts = NULL)

`items`	The object to convert to a dlist.
`nparts`	The number of partitions in the resulting dlist.

A dlist converted from the input. Note that a list of partitions (resulting from the use of parts()) may be used with as.dlist. This will recombine those partitions into a single distributed object.
