Dear community, I have a problem with a string conversion:
> text [1] "" "and" "\xc1d\xe1m" [4] "graphical" "interface" "MLP" [7] "Nagy" "networks" "Networks" [10] "neural" "Neural" "RBF" [13] "<sod...@yahoo.com>" "user" "with" [16] "and" "\xc1d\xe1m" "graphical" [19] "interface" "MLP" > I need to get rid off text[3,17] ! I have this kind of control-sequence a few times in my text and I do not get rid of it, by strsplit or sub. > grep("\xc1d\xe1m",text) Error in grep("\xc1d\xe1m", text) : regular expression is invalid in this locale > grep("\\xc1d\\xe1m",text) integer(0) Warning messages: 1: In grep("\\xc1d\\xe1m", text) : input string 3 is invalid in this locale 2: In grep("\\xc1d\\xe1m", text) : input string 17 is invalid in this locale Thanks in advance, Georg ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
