Description

Combines two lists, A and B, such that names(A) are preserved, mapping to the values of B, using names(B) as look up. Ie. replaces values in A with values in B, using names(B) as look up for values in A. Once more? See examples. NB! None-mapped entries are returned as NA, but can be removed using removeNAs.

Usage

mapLists(A, B, removeNAs = TRUE)

Arguments

A	List, elements are coerced to character for mapping to B.
B	List.
removeNAs	Boolean, whether to remove the NAs that occur because an element was not found in B.
