Hello all,
I have what I think is a simple question but I've been unable to solve it. I
have the following string:
A[&states=1]:[&rate=2]425, B[&states=3]:[&rate=5]500
I would like to combine the two expressions in the [], so that only one set
of [] is present after each letter, so that I have the following string:
A:[&states=1,&rate=2]425, B:[&states=3,&rate=5]500
I tried this:
> Y <- gsub("\\[&states=.\\]:\\[&",":\\[&states=.,", X)
which almost works, except that it replaces the numbers associated with
"states" with the period - not retaining the original value as I thought the
wildcard character would.
Any help is most appreciated!
Thanks
Rebecca
