Re: [R] Add a string to each string of an array

Your question has already been answered but as an aside note that the zoo package has a yearqtr class that can be helpful when dealing with quarterly dates. On Wed, Dec 17, 2008 at 10:25 AM, Boriss wrote: > Dear all, > > I have an array of strings > > a <- c("2008q3","2005q1","2004q3") > > I woul

Re: [R] Add a string to each string of an array

Hi Boris, Yes. Try this: paste('IMT',a,sep="") See ?paste. HTH, Jorge On Wed, Dec 17, 2008 at 10:25 AM, Boriss wrote: > Dear all, > > I have an array of strings > > a <- c("2008q3","2005q1","2004q3") > > I would like to add to each a[i], with i = 1,2,3 > > the following string "IMT", > > s

[R] Add a string to each string of an array

Dear all, I have an array of strings a <- c("2008q3","2005q1","2004q3") I would like to add to each a[i], with i = 1,2,3 the following string "IMT", such that in the end I could get b <- c("IMT2008q3","IMT2005q1","IMT2004q3") Is it possible to accomplish this without a loop command? Thank
