re ading tokens
Is this what you want:
x <- readLines(textConnection("word1 word2 word3
+ word2 word4"))
closeAllConnections() yourList <- strsplit(x, '[[:space:]]+') yourList
[[1]] [1] "word1" "word2" "word3" [[2]] [1] "word2" "word4"

Greetings, I am not familiar with processing text in R. ?Can someone tell me how to read each line of words as separate elements in a list? FE, I would like to turn: word1 word2 word3 word2 word4 into a list of length two with three character elements in the first list and two elements in the second. ?I know that this should be easy, but I am a little confused by the text functions.
