[R] How to pass a character string with a hyphen

[Jeff Reichman]

Boris

Yes in that case it works as you have assigned a character string to key. My
problem is I'm taking a string input from a shiny app and when I run the
function it only sees xxxx.  How to assign xxxx-yyyy to a character string.

tmp <- function(s) {
  return(str(s))
}
key <- "xxxx-yyyy"
tmp(key)

#  chr "xxxx-yyyy"

.. works for me.

Reprex?
