Lets say I have the following data frame.

df = data.frame(word = c("David", "James", "Sara", "Jamie", "Jon"))
df

I was trying to place brackets , [ ] , around each string.

I'll be exporting it with write.table and quotes=FALSE, so it will
eventually look like:

[David]
[James]
[Sara]
....


Can anyone help with this task?

I'd like to avoid regular expressions, but I haven't been able to use the
paste function
to get the desired result.
