paste

Concatenate strings


Description

paste concatenates vectors of strings or vector-like objects containing strings.

NOTE: This man page is for the paste S4 generic function defined in the BiocGenerics package. See ?base::paste for the default method (defined in the base package). Bioconductor packages can define specific methods for objects (typically vector-like objects containing strings) not supported by the default method.

Usage

paste(..., sep=" ", collapse=NULL, recycle0=FALSE)

Arguments

...

One or more vector-like objects containing strings.

sep, collapse, recycle0

See ?base::paste for a description of these arguments.

Value

See ?base::paste for the value returned by the default method.

Specific methods defined in Bioconductor packages will typically return an object of the same class as the input objects.
