Fast and Portable Character String Processing Facilities
Description
A collection of character string/text/natural language
processing tools for pattern searching (e.g., with 'Java'-like regular
expressions or the 'Unicode' collation algorithm), random string generation,
case mapping, string transliteration, concatenation, sorting, padding,
wrapping, Unicode normalisation, date-time formatting and parsing,
and many more. They are fast, consistent, convenient, and -
thanks to 'ICU' (International Components for Unicode) -
portable across all locales and platforms. Documentation about 'stringi' is
provided via its website at and
the paper by Gagolewski (2022, ).
