How to get index in a loop in R

Question

I have a vector of character type which has all the list of names.

So I\'m looping through each name and peforming some actions. This loop is not based on the index/leng

Answer 1

For variety:

names <- c("name1", "name2")
for(i in seq_along(names)){
    print(i)
}

seq_along is a fast primitive, and IMO slightly sweeter syntactic sugar.
