Hello,
Use ?rep.
Since you say you have a file, in the code below I will read the data
from a connection. Then create the string.
txtfile <- "ABC 3
DDG 5
ABB 2"
tc <- textConnection(txtfile)
df1 <- read.table(tc)
close(tc)
rep(df1[[1]], df1[[2]])
#[1] "ABC" "ABC" "ABC" "DDG" "DDG" "DDG" "DDG" "DDG" "ABB" "ABB"
Hope this helps,
Rui Barradas

Suppose I have a file with the the following structure - call the two
space-separated fields 'label' and 'count':
ABC 3
DDG 5
ABB 2
What I need to do is parse each line of the file, and then depending on
the value of count, write out the value of 'label' to a new file, but
'count' times. In other words, take the preceding, and output
ABC
ABC
ABC
DDG
DDG
DDG
DDG
DDG
ABB
ABB
I was wondering if there was an elegant/simple way to do this? I can do
this relatively easily in perl, or awk, but am stumped by getting a bit
of R code to accomplish the same thing.
Many thanks in advance...
