title: Separating Columns into Variables
body: <p>I'm looking to take 79 columns and make a unique variable for each column.
  I can manually create the variables by subsetting:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    v1 &lt;- x[1]
      v2 &lt;- x[2]
      etc.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I was wondering if/know there's a much faster way to do it. I'm just not really sure how.
  Right now I have:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    test &lt;- matrix(rep(1,79), nrow = 1, ncol = 79)
      c2v &lt;- function(test){
          for (i in c(1:79){
            v[i] &lt;- test[i]
          }
          return(v[i])
      }
      c2v(test)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thanks as always for the help!</p>
