Is there an elegant/fastR way to combine all pairs of columns in a data.frame?

For example, using mapply() and paste() we can turn this data.fr

    It's amusing to note that the OP's solution appears to be the fastest one:

    f1 <- function(mydf) {
        mapply(function(x, y) {
            paste(x, y, sep = ".")},
            mydf[ ,seq(1, ncol(mydf), by = 2)],
            mydf[ ,seq(2, ncol(mydf), by = 2)])
    }
    
    f.thelatemail <- function(mydf) {
        mapply(paste,mydf[c(TRUE,FALSE)],mydf[c(FALSE,TRUE)],sep=".")
    }
    
    require(dplyr)
    
    f.on_the_shores_of_linux_sea <- function(mydf) {
        transmute(mydf,x1=paste0( a.1,'.', a.2),x2=paste0( b.1,'.', b.2)) 
    }
    
    f.jazurro <- function(mydf) {
        odd <- seq(1, ncol(mydf), 2);
        lapply(odd, function(x) paste(mydf[,x], mydf[,x+1], sep = ".")) %>% 
            do.call(cbind,.)
    }
    
    library(data.table) 
    f.akrun <- function(mydf) {
        res <- as.data.table(matrix(, ncol=ncol(mydf)/2, nrow=nrow(mydf)))
        indx <- seq(1, ncol(mydf), 2)
        setDT(mydf)
        for(j in seq_along(indx)){
            set(res, i=NULL, j=j, value= paste(mydf[[indx[j]]], 
                                               mydf[[indx[j]+1]], sep='.'))
        }
        res
    }
    
    mydf <- data.frame(a.1 = letters, a.2 = 26:1, b.1 = letters, b.2 = 1:26)
    mydf <- mydf[rep(1:nrow(mydf),5000),]
    
    
    library(rbenchmark)
    benchmark(f1(mydf),f.thelatemail(mydf),f.on_the_shores_of_linux_sea(mydf),f.jazurro(mydf),f.akrun(mydf))
    

    Results:

    [Updated Benchmark]

    I've added one solution from @thelatemail, which I missed in the original answer, and one solution from @akrun:

    f.thelatemail2 <- function(mydf) {
        data.frame(Map(paste,mydf[c(TRUE,FALSE)],mydf[c(FALSE,TRUE)],sep="."))
    }
    
    f.akrun2 <- function(mydf) {    
        setDT(mydf)
        indx <- as.integer(seq(1, ncol(mydf), 2))
        mydf2 <- copy(mydf)
        for(j in indx){
            set(mydf2, i=NULL, j=j, value= paste(mydf2[[j]],
                                                 mydf2[[j+1]], sep="."))
        }
        mydf2[,indx, with=FALSE]
    }
