Access lapply index names inside FUN

Question

Is there a way to get the list index name in my lapply() function?

n = names(mylist)
lapply(mylist, function(list.elem) { cat(\"What is the name of this list         


        

Answer 1

I've had the same problem a lot of times... I've started using another way... Instead of using lapply, I've started using mapply

n = names(mylist)
mapply(function(list.elem, names) { }, list.elem = mylist, names = n)
