strsplit()分割字符串 当分割对象是竖线

在处理gene id的时候,有时候gene id会用"|"分割:

> a$geneids
[1] "2147|14061|14066|56316|69568"

再做各geneid转化之前,将geneid分割

> b <- strsplit(a$geneids,"|")
> b
[[1]]
 [1] "2" "1" "4" "7" "|" "1" "4" "0" "6" "1" "|" "1" "4" "0" "6" "6" "|" "5" "6" "3" "1" "6" "|" "6" "9"
[26] "5" "6" "8"

会造成每一个字符都分开，这是因为“|”是一个运算符，意思为“或”，所以此时要用转义符“\\”

> b <- strsplit(a$geneids,"\\|")#成功分割
> b
[[1]]
[1] "2147"  "14061" "14066" "56316" "69568"
#或者用[]
> b <- strsplit(a$geneids,"[|]")
> b
[[1]]
[1] "2147"  "14061" "14066" "56316" "69568"
