[R] Question about change the length of a string.

[Yen Lee]

Hello everyone,

 

I have a question and I need your precious kind help. 

 

I am working on matching two string. However, the length of the two strings
is different. For example, one is "example" (nchar=7), the other one is
"example   " (nchar=10). The R considers them as different strings but they
will be the same if I could make the first string has 10 characters,
"example" followed by 3 spaces. However, I could not find a way to do it. Is
there anyone able to provide some suggestions? 

 

I appreciate your precious time!!!!

 

Best,

Yen
