Hi all, I would like to check if a string contains "." in it. If yes, I would like to know the position of "." in the string.
Eg: X<-"NM1236.3" In above example, "." is at position 7. I tried functions grep() and match(). It seems they couldn't detect ".". Thanks in advance for your help, Sityee [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
