str_slice2: Slice a Vector at Consecutive Indices

Description

This function 'slices' the strings of a character vector x at consecutive indices n, thereby generating consecutive substrings of length n and returning the result as a list. This function will safely 'slice' a UTF-8 encoded vector.

Usage

str_slice2(x, n = 1, USE.NAMES = TRUE)

Arguments

x
a character vector.
n
integer (or numeric coercible to integer); index at which to slice.
USE.NAMES
logical. if names attribute already exists on x, pass this through to the result?

Value

A list of length equal to the length of x, with each element made up of the substrings generated from x[i].
