Regular Expressions and Text Processing in R

This reading was created with RMarkdown and has two files:

1. RegularExpressions_and_TextProcessingInR.html - This file is the compiled and easily readable version. I recommend reading through this document first to get a sense of each of the tools and techniques we will cover. When you are ready to practice with code and try out the examples use the next file.

2. RegularExpressions_and_TextProcessingInR.Rmd - This is the source file that created the html document. There may be some hidden code or html formatting that was necessary to create the previous readable version. Don't worry if you don't understand these details, they are beyond the scope of this course and specialization.

As you work through the training you will see a number of examples to "Try it out for yourself". Answers to these questions are provided in the optional practice quiz.
