View source: R/TransInfo.R

Description

TransInfo discovers transitions of two adjacent characters in strings.

A transition is defined as a substring (in the forward order) with length of 2 characters.

Usage

1
TransInfo(strings.vec, type1 = "letters", type2 = "digits")

Arguments

strings.vec

String Vector.

type1

The first type of transition. Default value is letter.

type2

The second type of transition. Default value is digit.

Value

The function returns a data frame, which contains the numbers of type1 transition, type2 transition, and transitions belonging to neither type1 nor type2.

Note

Strings with less than 2 characters are not included due to the definition of transition.
