In forks-micael/knitr: A General-Purpose Package for Dynamic Report Generation in R

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Examples

When a value from an inline R expression is a character vector of multiple elements, we may want to combine them into a phrase like a and b, or a, b, and c. That is what this a helper function does.

1	combine_words(words, sep = ", ", and = " and ", before = "", after = before)

`words`	A character vector.
`sep`	Separator to be inserted between words.
`and`	Character string to be prepended to the last word.
`before, after`	A character string to be added before/after each word.

If the length of the input words is smaller than or equal to 1, words is returned. When words is of length 2, the first word and second word are combined using the and string. When the length is greater than 2, sep is used to separate all words, and the and string is prepended to the last word.

A character string marked by xfun::raw_string().

combine_words("a")
combine_words(c("a", "b"))
combine_words(c("a", "b", "c"))
combine_words(c("a", "b", "c"), sep = " / ", and = "")
combine_words(c("a", "b", "c"), and = "")
combine_words(c("a", "b", "c"), before = "\"", after = "\"")
