Hi,
can someone help me; I don't understand why this code doesn't do what it's supposed to do; x <- c("F+", "F+") x <- sub("F+", "F", x) x [1] "F+" "F+" (I want "F" "F") when I try this; x <- c("F+", "F+") x <- sub("+", "", x) x I get an error message ("invalid regular expression") ______________________________________________ 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.
