如何在R中将字符列拆分为多列

Question

我有一个数据框x：

dput(x)
structure(list(District = structure(c(6L, 6L, 6L, 6L, 6L, 6L), .Label = c("District - Central (06)", 
"District - East (04)", "District - New Delhi (05)", "District - North (02)", 
"District - North East (03)", "District - North West (01)", "District - South (09)", 
"District - South West (08)", "District - West (07)"), class = "factor"), 
    Age = structure(c(103L, 1L, 2L, 14L, 25L, 36L), .Label = c("0", 
    "1", "10", "100+", "11", "12", "13", "14", "15", "16", "17", 
    "18", "19", "2", "20", "21", "22", "23", "24", "25", "26", 
    "27", "28", "29", "3", "30", "31", "32", "33", "34", "35", 
    "36", "37", "38", "39", "4", "40", "41", "42", "43", "44", 
    "45", "46", "47", "48", "49", "5", "50", "51", "52", "53", 
    "54", "55", "56", "57", "58", "59", "6", "60", "61", "62", 
    "63", "64", "65", "66", "67", "68", "69", "7", "70", "71", 
    "72", "73", "74", "75", "76", "77", "78", "79", "8", "80", 
    "81", "82", "83", "84", "85", "86", "87", "88", "89", "9", 
    "90", "91", "92", "93", "94", "95", "96", "97", "98", "99", 
    "Age not stated", "All ages"), class = "factor"), Total = c(3656539L, 
    56131L, 58644L, 63835L, 63859L, 64945L), Rural = c(213950L, 
    3589L, 3757L, 4200L, 4102L, 4223L), Urban = c(3442589L, 52542L, 
    54887L, 59635L, 59757L, 60722L)), .Names = c("District", 
"Age", "Total", "Rural", "Urban"), row.names = c(NA, 6L), class = "data.frame")

我想拆分District列以将地区名称提取到新列中Name。例如，“区 - 西北 (01)”应拆分为“西北”。我尝试str_split_fixed并得到：

x
                    District      Age   Total  Rural   Urban 1    name
1 District - North West (01) All ages 3656539 213950 3442589      North West (01)
2 District - North West (01)        0   56131   3589   52542      North West (01)
3 District - North West (01)        1   58644   3757   54887      North West (01)
4 District - North West (01)        2   63835   4200   59635      North West (01)
5 District - North West (01)        3   63859   4102   59757      North West (01)
6 District - North West (01)        4   64945   4223   60722      North West (01)

我尝试再次使用相同的函数来拆分name列以将地区名称与代码分开，但它给出了以下错误：

stri_split_regex 中的错误（字符串，模式，n = n，简化 = TRUE，opts_regex = attr（模式，：正则表达式模式中的嵌套括号不正确。（U_REGEX_MISMATCHED_PAREN）

有没有办法根据单个函数中的模式将字符列拆分为多个列？

Answer 1

你可以使用

library(stringr)

data.frame(str_split_fixed(df$District, " ", 3))

    X1      X2      X3
1 District   -    North West (01)
2 District   -    North West (01)
3 District   -    North West (01)
4 District   -    North West (01)
5 District   -    North West (01)
6 District   -    North West (01)

您可以用来gsub删除此处多余的东西，

gsub("[[:digit:]]","",df$X3)
gsub("[[:punct:]]","",df$X3)

ETC。
