Hello all
Is there a way reducing the number of characters in a list so that just
the left n numbers of characters is given?
For example, If I have a list, listnames, which consists of 4 strings of
6 characters;
listnames
[1] item12 item34 item56 item78
Is there a way to reduce this so
See ?substr.

substr(item54,1,5)
