strs_expandtabs replaces each tab character (\\t) in a string with a
specified number of spaces. This function behaves similarly to Python's
str.expandtabs() method.
Usage
strs_expandtabs(string, tabsize = 8)
Arguments
- string
A character vector where each element is a string in which to
expand tabs.
- tabsize
An integer specifying the number of spaces to replace each tab
character with. Defaults to 8.
Value
A character vector of the same length as string, with tabs in each
element replaced by tabsize number of spaces.
Examples
strs_expandtabs("hello\tworld", 4)
#> [1] "hello world"
strs_expandtabs("one\ttwo\tthree", 8)
#> [1] "one two three"
