How to Compare Two Strings in R - Step by Step Examples

How to Compare Two Strings in R ?

Answer

In R, you can compare two strings using the == operator for equality check.


✐ Examples

1 Comparison of Strings in R

In this example,

  1. We create two strings named str1 and str2 with different values.
  2. We compare the strings using the == operator.
  3. The == operator returns TRUE if the strings are equal, and FALSE otherwise.
  4. Finally, we print the result of the comparison.

R Program

# Comparison of Strings in R
str1 <- 'Hello'
str2 <- 'hello'
result <- str1 == str2
print(paste('Strings are equal:', result))

Output

[1] "Strings are equal: FALSE"

Summary

In this tutorial, we learned How to Compare Two Strings in R language with well detailed examples.
