This happened to me this summer when working on the recent US census; came up with two possible solutions:
1. Re-encode the column to UTF-8. Example: Encoding(puertoricocounty20$NAME) <- "latin1" puertoricocounty20$NAME <- iconv(puertoricocounty20$NAME, "latin1", "UTF-8") 2. Use gsub to replace all n-tilde's with regular n's. - Neal On Mon, Sep 19, 2022 at 12:53 PM Igor L <igorlal...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello everybody, > > I'm testing my package with the devtools::check() function and I got a > warning about found non-ASCII strings. > > These characters are in a dataframe and, as they are names of institutions > used to filter databases, it makes no sense to translate them. > > Is there any way to make the check accept these characters? > > They are in latin1 encoding. > > Thanks in advance! > > -- > *Igor Laltuf Marques* > Economist (UFF) > Master in urban and regional planning (IPPUR-UFRJ) > Researcher at ETTERN e CiDMob > https://igorlaltuf.github.io/ > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
