stringi-search: String Searching

Description

This man page explains how to perform string search-based operations in stringi.

Details

There are three independent string searching ``engines'' in stringi.

• stri_*_regex--ICU's regular expressions, seestringi-search-regex,
• stri_*_fixed--ICU'sStringSearch, locale-sensitive ``fixed'' patterns search , seestringi-search-fixed,
• stri_*_charclass-- character classes search: more exactly, location of either Unicode General Categories or Binary Properties, seestringi-search-charclass,

Each ``engine'' is able to perform many search-based operations:

• stri_detect_*- detects if a pattern occurs in a string, see e.g.stri_detect,
• stri_count_*- counts the number of occurrences of text matching a pattern, see e.g.stri_count,
• stri_locate_*- locates all, first, or last occurrences of a pattern, see e.g.stri_locate,
• stri_extract_*- extracts all, first, or last occurrences of a pattern, see e.g.stri_extractand, in case of regexes,stri_match,
• stri_replace_*- replaces all, first, or last occurrences of a pattern, see e.g.stri_replace,
• stri_split_*- splits a string into chunks indicated by occurrences of a pattern, see e.g.stri_split.
