R – Convert Vector to List

In this tutorial, we will learn how to convert a vector into a list in R programming Language.

To convert a vector into a list in R, use as.list() function.

The syntax of as.list() function that takes a vector x and returns a list is

</>
Copy
as.list(x) 

Example

In this example, we take a vector in x, and convert it to a list.

Example.R

</>
Copy
x = c("A", "B", "C", "D", "E")
print(x)

output = as.list(x)
print(output)

Output

> print(x)
[1] "A" "B" "C" "D" "E"

> print( output )
[[1]]
[1] "A"

[[2]]
[1] "B"

[[3]]
[1] "C"

[[4]]
[1] "D"

[[5]]
[1] "E"

Conclusion

In this R Tutorial, we learned how to convert a vector into a list using as.list() function, with the help of example programs.
