stringmagic
compatible with R
in [4.1.0; 4.1.2]..trigger
to cat/message_magic_alias
stringmagic
compatible with R
< 4.1.0 by removing calls to ...names()
.add string_extract
to extract patterns
add string_split
to split character strings
string_ops
now uses ...
to pass operations. This is backward compatible.
string_clean
: now the magic flag also expands the replacements:x = "Hi Mary, how's John doing?"
from = "John"
to = "Kate"
string_clean(x, "m/{from} => {to}")
#> [1] "Hi Mary, how's Kate doing?"
string_magic
: add the comma
flag to the enum
operation. In that case, the enumeration ends with “,” instead of “, and”.
string_magic
: the if-else operation &
now keeps memory of variables accessed within data sets:data = list(x = c(15, 25, 550), y = rnorm(1000))
string_magic("The values are{& length(data$x) < 5 ; : {enum ? .} ; too many}.")
# [1] "The values are: 15, 25 and 550."
string_magic("The values are{& length(data$y) < 5 ; : {enum ? .} ; too many}.")
# [1] "The values are too many."
string_magic
: new operation deparse
(alias: dp
) to deparse an object and keep only the first characters of the deparsed string.
improve error messages.
