How would you handle a situation where you need to remove escape sequences from a string in R?

  • Use the gsub() function with the appropriate pattern
  • Use the str_remove() function from the stringr package
  • Use the replace() function with the appropriate pattern
  • Use the sub() function with the appropriate pattern
To remove escape sequences from a string in R, you can use the gsub() function with the appropriate pattern. For example, if you want to remove all backslashes from a string, you can use gsub("\", "", my_string). This replaces every occurrence of backslashes with an empty string, effectively removing the escape sequences.
