I have 7 files in my directory, I am trying to import all of them dynamically. I am using the following code:

file <- dir(getwd(),full.names=TRUE)    
for (i in 1:length(file)){
  file_i <- read.csv(file[i],stringsAsFactors = F)
}

Above code is not working as we have to define the new variable outside the for loop. Can anybody suggest me a way?

Probably just `files – David Arenburg Aug 25 '15 at 11:26
Or we can read the files with `fread` from `data.table`. `library(data.table); files – akrun Aug 25 '15 at 11:28
