dear all,

I have a little problem I am doing a loop, witha grep function. sometimes it
happens that  have the following results

tmp <- grep("x", y)
tmp
integer(0)


how can I recognise this outcome? is.na is not working of course, so what
else?

length(integer(0)) is zero. If you get any matches, you'll get a longer result.
