You can try the following:
a == grep("ear", a, value=T)

Subject: [R] simple q: returning a logical vector of substring matches
I'm a relative R novice, and sometimes the simple things trip me up.
Suppose I have
a <- c("apple", "pear")
and I want a logical vector of whether each of these strings contains "ear"
(in this case, F T). What is the idiom?
Quizzically,
Mark Lindeman
