Hi R Users, Simple question: How might I convert the text "a, b, c" (or for that matter "a b c" with any delimiter - space, comma, etc.) into a 3-element character vector? [1] a b c Thanks, Brad

unlist(strsplit("a b c", split=" "))
[1] "a" "b" "c"
unlist(strsplit("a, b, c", split=", "))
[1] "a" "b" "c"
?strsplit
