Description
Change the length of a character string, placing the input string at
one end of the output string (if lengthening), or taking one end of
the input string only (when shortening). Useful to match lengths of
character strings, where inputs vary in length.
Usage
1
stringLength(input, length.out, which = c("head", "tail"), fill = NA)
Arguments
input
A character vector (coerced to character if not already)
length.out
Integer or numerical value for output character length
which
Options "head" (start of string) or "tail" (end of string)
fill
String of any length, used to fill in missing characters
where input needs to be lengthened. NA (default) will not lengthen,
meaning output strings may be shorter than "length.out".
Note that 'fill' is applied outwards from centre.
Value
A vector of character strings, the same vector length as 'input'.
