The stringr package provides a cohesive set of functions designed to make working with strings as easy as possible. If you're not familiar with strings, the best place to start is the [chapter on strings](https://r4ds.hadley.nz/strings) in R for Data Science. stringr is built on top of [stringi](https://github.com/gagolews/stringi), which uses the [ICU](https://icu.unicode.org) C library to provide fast, correct implementations of common string manipulations. stringr focusses on the most important and commonly used string manipulation functions whereas stringi provides a comprehensive set covering almost anything you can imagine. If you find that stringr is missing a function that you need, try looking in stringi. Both packages share similar conventions, so once you've mastered stringr, you should find stringi similarly easy to use. diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 73af00a4..7069f307 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -21,7 +21,7 @@ play a big role in many data cleaning and preparation tasks.
