I'm having a Thursday morning mental block, any suggestions on the following would be most appreciated...
I have (as an example) surgery = c("d48", "d67", "dnc37", "a75", "d10", "a78", "d31", "d55", "d1") before each number part the possibilities are c("a", "d", "dnc"), I'm trying to split each element in "surgery" so that I have, status time d 48 d 67 dnc 37 a 75 d 10 a 78 d 31 d 55 d 1 I've tried various strsplit approaches but nothing has done what I need. thanks in advance Gary [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
