Dear R community,
I am new to R—did some online tutorials and exercises in R playground. I was
wondering if I could seek guidance on the following matter.
I have a set of 403 .csv files. Each.csv file contains the same layouts and
distinguished by subject ID and date in the file name. The dataset looks like
this:
Sub1-20170305.csv
Sub2-20180214.csv
…
Sub403-20191109.csv
I will use rbind function to combine 403 csv files in a single file (myFile). I
will create two new variables (use mutate function) in myFile (subject ID and
date). Is there a way to subtract subject ID (shown as “Sub1, 2,,,403”) and
date from the name of the csv file and then place them in “subject ID” and
“date” in myFile?
Any info on the issue itself or where to look for will be appreciated.
Thanks,
CJ
