I have the following dataset
> head(names$SAMPLE_ID)
[1] "Bacteria|Proteobacteria|Gammaproteobacteria|Pseudomonadales|Moraxellaceae|Acinetobacter|"
[2] "Bacteria|Firmicutes|Bacilli|Bacillales|Bacillaceae|Bacillus|"
[3] "Bacteria|Proteobacteria|Gammaproteobacteria|Pasteurellales|Pasteurellaceae|Haemophilus|"
[4] "Bacteria|Firmicutes|Bacilli|Lactobacillales|Streptococcaceae|Streptococcus|"
[5] "Bacteria|Firmicutes|Bacilli|Lactobacillales|Streptococcaceae|Streptococcus|"
[6] "Bacteria|Firmicutes|Bacilli|Lactobacillales|Streptococcaceae|Streptococcus|"
I want to extract the last word between || as a new variable i.e.
Acinetobacter
Bacillus
Haemophilus
I have tried using
library(stringr)
names$sample2 <- str_match(names$SAMPLE_ID, "|.*?|")
557
To extract part string between two different characters, you can do as this: Select a cell which you will place the result, type this formula =MID(LEFT(A1,FIND(">",A1)-1),FIND("<",A1)+1,LEN(A1)), and press Enter key. Note: A1 is the text cell, > and < are the two characters you want to extract string between.
Extract text before or after space with formula in Excel You can quickly extract the text before space from the list only by using formula. Select a blank cell, and type this formula =LEFT(A1,(FIND(" ",A1,1)-1)) (A1 is the first cell of the list you want to extract text) , and press Enter button.
We can use
library(stringi)
stri_extract_last_regex(v1, '\\w+')
#[1] "Acinetobacter"
v1 <- "Bacteria|Proteobacteria|Gammaproteobacteria|Pseudomonadales|Moraxellaceae|Acinetobacter|"
