qdapRegex: Regular Expression Removal, Extraction, & Replacement Tools for the qdap Package

Description

qdapRegex is a collection of regular expression tools associated with the qdap package that may be useful outside of the context of discourse analysis. Tools include removal/extraction/replacement of abbreviations, dates, dollar amounts, email addresses, hash tags, numbers, percentages, citations, person tags, phone numbers, times, and zip codes.

Details

The qdapRegex package does not aim to compete with string manipulation packages such as stringr or stringi but is meant to provide access to canned, common regular expression patterns that can be used within qdapRegex, with R's own regular expression functions, or add on string manipulation packages such as stringr and stringi.
