Strip the left characters and strip the right characters into their own

tmp <- function(s) {

How does one pass a character string containing a hyphen? I have a function
that accesses an api if I hard code the object, for example
key_key <- "-"
it works but when I pass the key code to the function (say something like
key_code <- code_input) it returns only
6 matches
