extract: Extraction from list

In Alethere/SmoothDescent: Application of map-based genotype correction algorithm Smooth Descent

Extraction from list

Description

Given a list of identical objects, extract the same index of each object. This can be used to extract the same column from a list of matrices, the same index from a list of vectors or the same element from a list of lists. Multiple indeces can be provided.

Usage

extract(l, index = 1, simplify = T)

Arguments

l	list of elements with identical structure.
index	numeric or character to be applied to each element of list. Logicals can also be used, but will not work well with lists of lists.
simplify	should the output be simplified?

Value

list, vector or matrix of extracted objects

Examples

example <- list(data.frame(A = "first dataframe", B = "second argument"),
    data.frame(A = "second dataframe", B = "second argument"))
#From each data.frame extract column A
extract(example,"A")
