Hey, sorry if this has been addressed before, but I'm really new to R and having trouble with the gsub function. I need a way to make this function
exclude certain values from being substituted:
ie my data looks something like (15:.0234,10:.0157) and I'm trying to
replace the leading 15 with something else - but of course it replaces the second 15 with something else too. If there's a way to exclude anything with a leading decimal point or something like that, that would do the trick.
Thanks yall.


Cross-posting to SO and rhelp in quick succession is deprecated. If you hadn't gotten an answer on SO after a day or so, then fine, go a head cross-post but in point of fact you have already gotten three answer on SO so you are just wasting rhelp brain-bandwidth.
