Grant, I think,
Your NO SUBJECT message confused me as it seems a continuation of an earlier
discussion of a new and likely irrelevant metric of the worthiness of R
programs.
Did you make a mistake here? I tried your code as well and the results did
not look like what the OP asked for.
It took me a bit to figure out why we needed factors to do what was asked,
and I have concluded we did not but that a particular approach made use of
it as a way to get unsplit to gather the right values together as in:
x <- list(`1` = c(7, 13, 1, 4, 10),
`2` = c(2, 5, 14, 8, 11),
`3` = c(6, 9, 15, 12, 3))
f <- factor(rep(1:3,5))
result <- unsplit(x, f)
By inspection, what the code is doing is treating the three list elements
like rows stacked and then reading down the columns from left to right:
> x
$`1`
[1] 7 13 1 4 10
$`2`
[1] 2 5 14 8 11
$`3`
[1] 6 9 15 12 3
> unsplit(x, f)
[1] 7 2 6 13 5 9 1 14 15 4 8 12 10 11 3
Your code offers, instead:
unlist(x[f])
I have no idea why that would work as it acts by taking indices (not really
factors even if in factor form as it end up being integers from 1 to 3
repeated 5 times) and thus simply repeats all of x five times and then
gathers all the results in a pile of numbers that does not resemble what is
wanted:
> f
[1] 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3
Levels: 1 2 3
> x[f]
$`1`
[1] 7 13 1 4 10
$`2`
[1] 2 5 14 8 11
$`3`
[1] 6 9 15 12 3
$`1`
[1] 7 13 1 4 10
<<<LOTS OMITTED
$`3`
[1] 6 9 15 12 3
> unlist(x[f])
11 12 13 14 15 21 22 23 24 25 31 32 33 34 35 11 12 13 14 15 21 22 23 24 25
31 32 33 34 35 11 12 13 14 15
7 13 1 4 10 2 5 14 8 11 6 9 15 12 3 7 13 1 4 10 2 5 14 8 11
6 9 15 12 3 7 13 1 4 10
21 22 23 24 25 31 32 33 34 35 11 12 13 14 15 21 22 23 24 25 31 32 33 34 35
11 12 13 14 15 21 22 23 24 25
2 5 14 8 11 6 9 15 12 3 7 13 1 4 10 2 5 14 8 11 6 9 15 12 3
7 13 1 4 10 2 5 14 8 11
31 32 33 34 35
6 9 15 12 3
I would like to hear if you meant something else or am I doing anything
wrong.
I was thinking of how to expand the request using the technique we now
consider the Rexiest.
If you declare x to be a list of Nrows vectors, all the same length, Mcols,
then a generalized version might be working on something like this, where,
names do not seem needed or even relevant as the various methods use have
tossed them.
x <- list(c(7, 13, 1, 4, 10, 12),
c(2, 5, 14, 8, 11, 13),
c(6, 9, 15, 12, 3, 14),
c( 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 15),
c(-105, -104, -103, -102, -101, 16))
I added one number at the end of each from above and added two rows.
The number of items in the list is:
Nrows <- length(x)
In the above example, that happens to be five and in the original, 3.
Assuming all the parts are the same length, you can just check one of them
for a length as a vector:
Mcols <- length(x[[1]])
And you get 6 for the new version and 5 for the original.
So, using the same technique, generalized, should work as:
f <- factor(rep(1:Nrows,Mcols))
And the result is:
result <- unsplit(x, f)
Comparing the new test of x versus results shows
> x
[[1]]
[1] 7 13 1 4 10 12
[[2]]
[1] 2 5 14 8 11 13
[[3]]
[1] 6 9 15 12 3 14
[[4]]
[1] 101 102 103 104 105 15
[[5]]
[1] -105 -104 -103 -102 -101 16
> result
[1] 7 2 6 101 -105 13 5 9 102 -104 1 14 15 103
-103 4 8 12 104 -102
[21] 10 11 3 105 -101 12 13 14 15 16
Of course, many of the other techniques we discussed here also scale up to
any size easily, if not as compactly.

I would go with unlist on x,single bracket subsetted on f
x <- list(`1` = c(7, 13, 1, 4, 10),
`2` = c(2, 5, 14, 8, 11),
`3` = c(6, 9, 15, 12, 3))
f <- factor(rep(1:3,5))
unlist(x[f])
Yes, unsplit() it is. I was messing around with ave() (which can be hammered
into submission, sort of).
My overlooking unsplit() is somewhat impressive in view of "svn diff -c
18591"....
