Hi r-help, A very simple question for which I have not been able to find an answer in the docs: How can I merge two character strings? I am searching for the equivalent of the (non-existing) stringmerge function illustrated below:> s1 <- "R-" > s2 <- "project" > stringmerge(s1,s2)[1] "R-project">Claus -- Ph.D. Student Claus Hindsgaul CHEC, Dept. Chemical Eng. (KT), DTU and Biomass Gasification Group, Dept. Mechanical Eng. (MEK), DTU DTU Building 229 room 154, Phone +45 4525 2838 http://bgg.mek.dtu.dk/ and http://www.kt.dtu.dk/
look at ?paste(), e.g.,
s1 <- "R-"
s2 <- "project"
paste(s1, s2, sep = "")
Best,
Dimitris

Thank you all! Paste() was just the function I needed to know!
