Dear all, Is there any R function to say these 2 character strings

"temp"  == " temp"[1] FALSE

You don't say how you're defining "same", but it definitely requires more explanation, since they are not the same. Why should those two strings be the same in your mind? Do you want to remove leading white space, all white space, just one space, etc?

You might find the examples in ?sub useful.
