Mr. Barradas, I got the same "output" as before, which is the + indicating that the expression is incomplete (according to some R users response in this chain).
Should the argument perhaps be c1 = strsplit(i, split = '\\', fixed = T)[[1]] .... thereby eliminating the "." ? The reprex and error message as the result of this is the same as the previous one I sent. I will send a more detailed description of what code I have done so far for context.
