You first define your list of names, say by namelist = Table[ToExpression[StringJoin["name", ToString[i]]], {i, 1, 10}] then you make your rule list by subs = (#1 -> SomeFunction[#1]) & /@ namelist Look at "Map" (for /@) and "Function" (for #1 and &) in the Mathematica help if you do not recognize the notation Best regards Ingolf Dahl Sweden ingolf.dahl at telia.com -----Original Message----- From: janitor048 [mailto:janitor048 at googlemail.com] Sent: den 19 april 2010 10:10 To: mathgroup at smc.vnet.net Subject: [mg109263] [mg109136] How to dynamically build a list of rules Hi there! I need a somewhat larger list of substitution rules along the line of subs = { name1 -> SomeFunction[name1], name2 -> SomeFunction[name2], ... , nameN -> SomeFunction[nameN]} Obviously typing that by hand can become a little annoying. So I would like to have that list created dynamically, via Table[ ... ] or something the like. The problem is, I can't figure out the correct syntax for this task. "name1" etc. are just, well, names (variable names to be specific). Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a solution on the web so far. Any suggestions? Cheers, Oliver
