Dear group,
Here is my df :
df <-
structure(list(DESCRIPTION = c("PRM HGH GD ALUMINIUM USD 09/07/10 ",
"PRM HGH GD ALUMINIUM USD 09/07/10 ", "PRIMARY NICKEL USD 04/06/10 "
), CREATED.DATE = structure(c(18361, 18361, 18325), class = "Date"),
QUANITY = c(-1L, 1L, 1L), CLOSING.PRICE = c("2,415.90", "2,415.90",
"25,755.71")), .Names = c("DESCRIPTION", "CREATED.DATE",
"QUANITY", "CLOSING.PRICE"), row.names = c(NA, 3L), class = "data.frame")
>
> df
DESCRIPTION CREATED.DATE
QUANITY CLOSING.PRICE
1 PRM HGH GD ALUMINIUM USD 09/07/10 2020-04-09 -1
2,415.90
2 PRM HGH GD ALUMINIUM USD 09/07/10 2020-04-09 1
2,415.90
3 PRIMARY NICKEL USD 04/06/10 2020-03-04 1
25,755.71
In the DESCRIPTION column, I want to get rid of the date (09/07/10 .). I
know the function substr(x, start, stop), but in my case, I need to indicate
I want to start from the end of the vector, and I have no idea how to pass
this argument.
TY for any help
