I am new in R.
I have a file. This file contains name of the companies.
'data.frame': 494 obs. of 1 variable:
$ V1: Factor w/ 470 levels "3-d engineering corp",..: 293 134 339 359 143
399 122 447 398 384 ...
Problem: I would like to remove "CO" (As it is the most frequent word). I
would like "CO" to removed from BOEING CO --> BOEING but not from SAGINAW
*CO*UNTY INC*. *
> text = c("BOEING CO","ENGMANTAYLOR CO","SAGINAW COUNTY INC")
> gsub(x = text, pattern = "CO", replacement = "")
[1] "BOEING " "ENGMANTAYLOR " "SAGINAW UNTY"
Thanks in advance.
