dataframe: string operations on columns
how can I perform a string operation like strsplit(x," ") ?on a column of a dataframe, and put the first or the second item of the split into a new dataframe column? (so that on each row it is consistent)
Have a look at str_split_fixed in the stringr package. Hadley
