perl expression question
Hi Mark,
do you mean the regex to get the portion of the address after the
final slash? Something like
gsub(".*/([^/]*$)", "\\1", stock, fixed=FALSE)
Cheers
Andrew

If I have the string below. does someone know a regular expression to just get the "BLC.NYSE". I bought the O'Reilley book and read it when I can and I study the solutions on the list but I'm still not self sufficient with these things. Thanks. stock<-"/opt/limsrv/mark/research/equity/projects/testDL/stock_data/fhdb/US/BLC.NYSE"
