How to read CSV files in a loop?

Question

I am new to R and now I have an issue while I try to read CSV files in a loop. My CSV files are named as

result_file_1.csv , result_file_2.csv,....result_file_10.csv

So I planned to read a CSV by the below code:

for(i in 1:10){
t1=read.csv("result_file_i.csv")
// rest of my code
}

I also tried:

for(i in 1:10){
    t1=read.csv("result_file_"+i+".csv")
    // rest of my code
    }

both did not work. Any help is appreciated

use `paste0()` to get the filename; `read.csv(paste0("result_file_", i , ".csv"))` — joel.wilson, Dec 29 '16 at 11:07

As suggested above I used paste0("result_file",i,".csv") and it worked fine.
