The wildcard package is a templating mechanism for data frames in R. Wildcards are placeholders for text, and you can evaluate them to generate new data frames from templates.
library(wildcard)myths<-data.frame(myth= c("Bigfoot","UFO","Loch Ness Monster"),claim= c("various","day","day"),note= c("various","pictures","reported day"))myths## myth claim note## 1 Bigfoot various various## 2 UFO day pictures## 3 Loch Ness Monster day reported daywildcard(myths,wildcard="day",values= c("today","yesterday"))## myth claim note## 1 Bigfoot various various## 2 UFO today pictures## 3 UFO yesterday pictures## 4 Loch Ness Monster today reported today## 5 Loch Ness Monster yesterday reported yesterday

Be sure that wildcards and are not also replacement values.
df<-data.frame(x="a",y="b")rules<-list(a=letters[1:3],b=LETTERS[1:3])wildcard(df,rules=rules)## x y## 1 a A## 2 a B## 3 a C## 4 A A## 5 B B## 6 C C## 7 c A## 8 c B## c C## Warning message:## In check_rules(rules) :## In `rules`, some wildcards are also replacement values.## The returned data frame may be different than you expect,## and it may depend on the order of the wildcards in `rules`.
