title: read csv files into a list of data frames r
body: <p>I tried looking for the answer to this but I could only find how to create individual data frames from csv files. I have many csv files in my working directory, and instead of assigning them to individual data frames by</p>
  
  <pre><code>frame1 = read.csv(filepath)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I would like have them contained in a list of data frames that I could do operations on. This would obviously require a loop over the files in dir(), but I am not sure of the syntax. In java I would do List.add() for each element. </p>
  
  <p>Thank you</p>
