| sf_grepl {stringfish} | R Documentation |
A function that matches patterns and returns a logical vector
sf_grepl(subject, pattern, encode_mode = "auto")
subject |
The subject character vector to search |
pattern |
The pattern to search for |
encode_mode |
The encoding type to use (UTF-8, latin1, bytes, native or auto) |
The function uses the PCRE2 library, which is also used internally by R. The encoding is based on the pattern string (or forced via the encode_mode parameter). Note: the order of paramters is switched compared to the 'grepl' base R function, with subject being first. See also: https://www.pcre.org/current/doc/html/pcre2api.html for more documentation on match syntax.
A logical vector with the same length as subject
grepl
x <- sf_vector(10) sf_assign(x, 1, "hello world") pattern <- "^hello" sf_grepl(x, pattern)
