Dear David,
str_split_fixed calls str_locate_all, which gives
str_locate_all("ab", "")
## [[1]]
## start end
## [1,] 1 0
## [2,] 2 1
##
in your example, since "" is a character of length 1. substring() is
probably more intuitive to get your expected result:
substring("ab", 1:2, 1:2)
## [1] "a" "b"

I'm puzzled as to why I get this behaviour with str_split_fixed in the
stringr package.
stringr::str_split_fixed('ab','',2)
[,1] [,2]
[1,] "" "ab"
stringr::str_split_fixed('ab','',3)
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] "" "a" "b"
In the first example, I was expecting to get
[,1] [,2]
[1,] "a" "b"
Can someone explain?
Thanks,
David
