Examples

# sample list
score_list <- list(item1=c(0:3), item2=c(0:2), item3=c(0:5), item3=c(0:4))

# examples
# 1) create a rbind with the sample score list
bind.fill(score_list, type="rbind")

# 2) create a cbind with the sample score list
bind.fill(score_list, type="cbind")

# 3) create a cbind with the sample score list,
#    and fill missing data with 0s.
bind.fill(score_list, type="cbind", fill = 0L)
