[R] Problems with paste and blank

[Dimitris Rizopoulos]

look at the `sep' argument of ?paste(), e.g.,

Stadtwerksname <- "Mannheim"
Laufwerk <- "C:\\"
paste(Laufwerk, Stadtwerksname, ".csv", sep = "")


I hope it helps.

Best,
Dimitris

See the argument 'sep' in the paste function.

paste(Laufwerk,Stadtwerksname,".csv", sep="")
