Hi,

I am a newbie to R and this may be too simple to ask.

I am trying to find out a string function in R that returns the index of a
character.

For e.g. indexOf("Test1234", '4') would return 8.

?grep
?strsplit

> grep("4", strsplit("Test1234", "")[[1]])
[1] 8



Is there a similar function in R.
I tried searching the documentation and could find other useful string
functions, but not the index function.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Harsh Yadav
