vcat

Paste Utilities – Concatenate Strings

Description

Concatenate vector elements or anything using paste(*, collapse = .). These are simple short abbreviations I have been using in my own codes in many places.

Usage

vcat(vec, sep = " ")
ccat(...)

Arguments

`vec, ...`	any vector and other arguments to be pasted to together.
`sep`	the separator to use, see the Details section.

Details

The functions are really just defined as
vcat := function(vec, sep = " ") paste(vec, collapse = sep)

ccat := function(...) paste(..., collapse = "", sep = "")

Value

a character string (of length 1) with the concatenated arguments.

Author(s)

Martin Maechler, early 1990's.

Examples

ch <- "is"
ccat("This ", ch, " it: ", 100, "%")
vv <- c(1,pi, 20.4)
vcat(vv)
vcat(vv, sep = ", ")
