I've got a df just like this:
df = data.frame(longitude = c('-235.969',
'-23.596.244',
'-2.359.186'))
It´s an example of one column of geocode I'm trying to convert to something like this
new_df = data.frame(longitude = c('-23.5969', '-23.596244', '-23.59186'))
The main purpose is to use the geocode in an leaflet application.
If really necessary, I would do this in two steps:
library(magrittr)
gsub(".", "", df$longitude, fixed = TRUE) %>%
sub("(\\d{2})", "\\1\\.", .)
[1] "-23.5969" "-23.596244" "-23.59186"
First drop any .
then replace the first two digits with the first two digits + .
PS. without pipes you could do:
sub("(\\d{2})", "\\1\\.", gsub(".", "", df$longitude, fixed = TRUE))
EDIT: Important caveat :
As Matt points out this only works if your longitude ALWAYS consist of if your longitude degree is two digits (10-99).
