Subject: [R] how to GREP out a string like this......THANKS.
Dear ALl,
I hope you could help me out on this simple problem. I have many thousand lines
like this:
NM_019397 // Egfl6 // EGF-like-domain, multiple 6 // X F5|X 71.5 cM // 54156
I want to extract the string inside the first // //, in this case is Egf16.
How do I apply grep function?
Thanks.
