Vectorised over string, to replace underscores with spaces or vice versa.

str_replace_us(string)

str_replace_sp(string)

Arguments

string

"Input vector. Either a character vector, or something coercible to one." (from ?stringr::str_replace_all)

Value

"A character vector." (from ?stringr::str_replace_all)

Details

These two functions are thin wrappers around str_replace_all() from the 'stringr' package. They just pass a space (" ") or an underscore ("_") to the parameters pattern and replacement, automatically. (Yes, I do this often enough to warrant adding two new functions to my namespace!)

Examples

txt <- "This_is_a_string" str_replace_us(txt)
#> [1] "This is a string"
txt <- "This is a string" str_replace_sp(txt)
#> [1] "This_is_a_string"
