Dear list, The following behaviour looks like a bug:
grepl("ab{,2}c", "abbbc") # [1] TRUE I would expect either FALSE or an "invalid regex" error. More details can be found in the question I originally asked here: https://stackoverflow.com/q/46999964/6656269 I've also opened an issue on the TRE github: https://github.com/laurikari/tre/issues/62 Best, Etienne ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
