Hi I got a string that looks something like this 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 ... and I want it to be 123456789... So I want to remove all spaces (or whitespaces) from my string. Anyone know a good way of doing this? //Joel -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Remove-all-whitespaces-tp3497867p3497867.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
