dear all,
I am stuck on the following problem. Give a string like

ss1<- "z:f(5, a=3, b=4, c='1:4', d=2)"

or

ss2<- "f(5, a=3, b=4, c=\"1:4\", d=2)*z"

I would like to remove all entries within parentheses.. Namely, I aim to obtain respectively

"z:f()" or "f()*z"

I played with sub() and gsub() but without success..
Thank you very much for your time,

best,
vito
