            6.8.3 manipulate the r list elements

            In R, we can add, delete, or update elements of the list. The addition or deletion of the elements can only be done at
            the end of the list. However, an update can be performed on any element in the list.
            Let’s now discuss how to manipulate the R list elements with the help of an example.

            Example

            Enter the following code snippet:

                #Creating a list containing a vector, a matrix and a list.
                data_list <- list(c("Jan","Feb","Mar"),
                matrix(c(1,2,3,4,-1,9), nrow = 2),list("Red",12.3))

                #Give names to the elements in the list.
                names(data_list) <- c("Month", "Matrix", "Misc")
                #Add an element at the end of the list.

                data_list[4] <- "New element"
                print(data_list[4])
                #Remove the last element.

                data_list[4] <- NULL
                print(data_list[4])
                #Update the 3rd Element.
                data_list[3] <- "updated element"
