Question

假设使用管道分隔符将 900 多个公司名称粘贴在一起形成正则表达式模式 -- "firm.pat".

firm.pat <- str_c(firms$firm, collapse = "|")

对于名为 "bio" 的数据框，它有一个名为 "comment" 的大字符变量（250 行，每行 100 多个单词），我想用空格替换所有公司名称。 gsub 调用和 str_replace_all 调用 return 同样的神秘错误。

bio$comment <- gsub(pattern = firm.pat, x = bio$comment, replacement = "")
Error in gsub(pattern = firm.pat, x = bio$comment, replacement = "") : 
  assertion 'tree->num_tags == num_tags' failed in executing regexp: file 'tre-compile.c', line 634

library(stringr)
bio$comment <- str_replace_all(bio$comment, firm.pat,  "")
Error: assertion 'tree->num_tags == num_tags' failed in executing regexp: file 'tre-compile.c', line 634

其他三个帖子提到了 SO 上的神秘错误，a passing reference and cites two other oblique references，但没有讨论。

我知道这个问题缺少可重现的代码，但即便如此，我如何找出错误的解释？更好的是，我如何避免抛出错误？少数公司似乎不会出现该错误，但我无法检测到模式或阈值。我是运行 Windows 8、RStudio，每个包的更新版本。

谢谢。

Answer 1

我对由数百个制造商名称组成的模式有同样的问题。我可以建议模式太长，所以我将它分成两个或多个模式并且效果很好。

  ml<-length(firms$firm)
  xyz<-gsub(sprintf("(*UCP)\b(%s)\b", paste(head(firms$firm,n=ml/2), collapse = "|")), "", bio$comment, perl=TRUE)
  xyz<-gsub(sprintf("(*UCP)\b(%s)\b", paste(tail(firms$firm,n=ml/2), collapse = "|")), "", xyz, perl=TRUE)

Answer 2

您可以在 qdap 包中使用 mgsub，它是 gsub 的扩展，用于处理模式向量和替换。
