Dear, R-lister,
I have a dataframe like the followed. And, I want to split a character
variable ("popcode", or "codetot") into several new variables. For example,
split "BCPy01-01" (in popcode) into "BCPy01" and "01". I need to know how to
do that. I have tried strsplit() and substring() functions. But, I still can
not perform the spliting.
Any advice? Thanks in advance.
df1:
popcode codetot p3need
BCPy01-01 BCPy01-01-1 100.0000
BCPy01-01 BCPy01-01-2 100.0000
BCPy01-01 BCPy01-01-3 100.0000
BCPy01-02 BCPy01-02-1 92.5926
BCPy01-02 BCPy01-02-1 100.0000
BCPy01-02 BCPy01-02-2 92.5926
BCPy01-02 BCPy01-02-2 100.0000
BCPy01-02 BCPy01-02-3 92.5926
BCPy01-02 BCPy01-02-3 100.0000
BCPy01-03 BCPy01-03-1 100.0000
