AW: [R] pmatch questions

["Unternährer Thomas, uth"]

Hi,

This is maybe not a really nice solution but it gives you what you want

which(regexpr("a", c("cc","xxa"))!=-1)
2

which(regexpr("xx", c("cc","xxa","xxb"))!=-1)
2 3

Betreff: [R] pmatch questions


Dear all,
Below there are two, simple - I suppose, questions on using pmatch():

> pmatch("xx", c("cc","xxa"))
[1] 2
> pmatch("a", c("cc","xxa"))
[1] NA
> pmatch("xx", c("cc","xxa","xxb"))
[1] NA

I would like that the second call returns also 2, and the third call returns
c(2,3)
is it possible?

many thanks
vito
