## Many-to-many replacement

replacements <- c(1, 2, 3)  
rGsub(                      
  pattern     = patterns,   
  replacement = replacements,
  x           = letters     
)                           
                            
## Many-to-one replacement  
replacement <- 123          
rGsub(                      
  pattern     = patterns,   
  replacement = replacement,
  x           = letters     
)

  replacement = replacement,
  x           = letters
