[R] Joining Characters in R {issue with paste}

[Erik Iverson]

And did you read the help file, ?paste , paying attention to the arguments and their descriptions, specifically the "sep" argument?  Presumably, you want, 

paste(a, b, sep = "")

Hi Guys
I am want to join to strings in R. I am using paste but not getting
desirable result.

For the sake of clarity, a quick example:

> a="Bio"
> b="iology"
> paste(a,b)
[1] "Bio iology"


*There is a SPACE in the word biology which is what I dont want *


Thanks,
-Abhi
