Character strings of the same length as the input, with all core identifiers shortened
In contrast to rocheCore, which only handles character strings that are valid Roche compound identifiers, this function takes any input
string and performs a gsub operation to shorten Roche core numbers. Therefore, it even works when only a substring matches the pattern of a Roche compound name.
Arguments
str
Character strings that contains one or more Roche core identifiers (RO followed by seven-digit numbers)
shortenRocheCompoundID(c("RO1234567-001", "RO1234567-001-000",
"RO1234567", "ROnoise-001", "anyOther-not-affected",
"RO1234567 and RO9876543 are two imaginary compounds."))
