Description Usage Arguments Details Examples
View source: R/search_addresses.R
This function takes a vector input and searches presence of any text that appears to be a full address. It first identifies whether any string appears to be a state name or state abbreviation, then determines whether the preceding text appears to be a city in that state. Once a city and state are identified, it then looks for strings that appear to be zipcodes or street addresses (meaning street name and house number).
