title: How to import multiple excel files present in a folder and apply given algorithm to each of them in R?
body: <p>I have multiple excel files in multiple folders each file needs to be imputed separately with an algorithm, so I want to import data as per file and impute on them using the algorithm one by one but separately without merging any data</p>
  
  <p>I have tried using the readxl library</p>
  
  <pre><code>library(readxl)
  
  file.list &lt;- list.files("C:/Users/srich/Downloads/Course Project Datasets/Incomplete Datasets Without Labels/4-gauss", pattern='*.xlsx')
  df.list &lt;- lapply(file.list, read_xlsx)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But I am only getting list of files present in that folder, I want each file data to load in the environment for imputation.</p>
  
  <p>Sorry if I was vague in my question as I am new to R, just a couple of days of experience. Thank you. </p>
