Why don't you explain why you want to manipulate your data this way and provide a self-contained session transcript. Then the helpeRs can figure out how to offer sensible alternatives. -- David.> > now i have to split this dataframe with respect to "," and i have > to get it > like > > > a b c > 1 2 3 > 4 5 6 > 7 8 8 > > > this one i am not able to findout > can any one help me to get it done > > thanks in advance > kiran > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
Does this do what you want.> x <- "a,b,c|1,2,3|4,5,6|7,8,8" > x.1 <- strsplit(x, "[|]") > x.1[[1]] [1] "a,b,c" "1,2,3" "4,5,6" "7,8,8"> x.2 <- lapply(x.1, strsplit, ',') > x.2[[1]] [[1]][[1]] [1] "a" "b" "c" [[1]][[2]] [1] "1" "2" "3" [[1]][[3]] [1] "4" "5" "6" [[1]][[4]] [1] "7" "8" "8"> do.call(rbind, x.2[[1]])[,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] "a" "b" "c" [2,] "1" "2" "3" [3,] "4" "5" "6" [4,] "7" "8" "8">On Thu, Dec 17, 2009 at 9:11 AM, venkata kirankumar <kiran4u2all@gmail.com>wrote:> Hi all, > Hi this is kiran > I am facing a problem to split a dataframe > > that is.. > i have a string like: "a,b,c|1,2,3|4,5,6|7,8,8" > first I have to split with respect to "|" > I did it with command > > unlist(strsplit("a,b,c|1,2,3|4,5,6|7,8,8", "\\,")) > > > after getting that set i made it as a dataframe and it comes like > > a,b,c > 1,2,3 > 4,5,6 > 7,8,8 > > now i have to split this dataframe with respect to "," and i have to get > it > like > > > a b c > 1 2 3 > 4 5 6 > 7 8 8 > > > this one i am not able to findout > can any one help me to get it done > > thanks in advance > kiran > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide > http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html<http://www.r-project.org/posting-guide.html> > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. >-- Jim Holtman Cincinnati, OH +1 513 646 9390 What is the problem that you are trying to solve?
