Is there an alphanumeric sort for R?
Say I had a character vector like so:
> seq.names <- c('abc21', 'abc2', 'abc1', 'abc01', 'abc4', 'abc201', '1b', '1a')
I'd like to sort it aphanumerically, so I get back this:
c('1a', '1b', 'abc1', 'abc01', 'abc2', 'abc4', 'abc21', 'abc201')
Does this exist somewhere, or should I start coding? Thanks,
