grr, editing my bookdown doc in rstudio. after every edit, the embedded console decides that i have a new backlog of 3-50 warnings, even though the doc was not recompiled (and even if it had been, what does that have to do with my console?)
congrats, alistaire, nice mjollniR there :)
 
7:11 AM
good morning
congrats @alistaire!
 
Good morning ppl
 
Morning all, congrats @alistaire!
 
Nice hammer @alistaire Congrats :)
 
Good morning, someone a dupe target for this, please?
Congrats, @alistaire
 
@alistaire Congrats! kewl plot

@UweBlock If OP can just separate on ., then probably this?
tidyr::separate_rows(df, Col1, sep = ".") is probably easiest
 
@Axeman hmm, looks like the OP just wants to get rid of the leading digits and the dot but the title is misleading.
 
7:36 AM
@UweBlock Then this? (but in reverse)
or this
so many Qs
 
@Axeman yes, many Q but I didn't find an exact match either. I'm afraid that nurkas answer is fitting pretty well...
 
@RomanLuštrik I'm afraid I didn't improve my skills much :-/
 
@UweBlock Ok so leave it be then. No reason to be behave like he does.
 
And hi everyone :-)
 
Hiya @Cath :)
 
7:45 AM
@Axeman Ooh, no, I'm not in for the revenge stuff. I just wondered that this type of problem never has been asked before.
 
@UweBlock It probably has, but it's hard to find because of many very similar Qs. Can you edit the title of that one so we can find it easier next time?
 
8:08 AM
@Axeman Renamed to How to remove leading digits and dot from character vector?
 
@UweBlock Cheers :-)

I vote unclear
 
me too
 
Hello
@Natty tp
 
Hey @zx8754 :-)
 
@Cath Hey
 
12:45 PM
 
@Cath OP seems to be really confused.
Or perhaps I am..
 
@Axeman yep that's why I'm unsure whether it's worth moving... probably not...
 
@Cath Yeah I agree. If he clarifies it also might turn out be a programming question in the end after all.
 
let wait and see, good chances it will end up in self-deleting ;-) (I too don't see how he could fix min/max and mean/sd...)
 
1:05 PM
@Cath get more biased data maybe?
 
lol or bias-sample your original data...
 
I think I heard something like: as soon as you look at your data (as in row by row) analysis is already biased.
 
it makes sense I guess, probably because why would you look at your data in row by row manner if it wasn't to look for something specific ?...
 
Not sure how would QC fit in then
 
like in "oulier removal" ?
 
@Cath as in, to clean up using regex, to find out about patterns we look at the data almost row by row
 
@zx8754 hmm I don't do that ;-p but that's not the same thing I'd say, there is no a priori
 
Hence, why I am struggling. — Fungie 6 mins ago
I don't know what to say anymore..
 
1:57 PM
@Axeman maybe they should make a team with the guy that wanted to improve the correlation coefficient :-D

hi all
 
@Frank hi!
 
@Axeman yeah, they have to throw out the cardinal info in the data and just work with the ranks if that's what they want. in education research, there's a strong inclination towards that sort of thing ("but i know the true population is normal! lemme inverse cdf the ranks/length")
