snakecase
A systematic R package for parsing strings and converting them to snake_case, camelCase, and other naming conventions.
What is snakecase?
snakecase is an R package that systematically parses and converts strings between different naming conventions like snake_case, camelCase, and SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE. It solves the problem of inconsistent variable names in data analysis by providing a flexible, rule-based approach to standardize text formatting.
R developers and data analysts who need to clean and standardize column names, variable identifiers, or other text data in their workflows, especially those working with datasets from multiple sources.
It offers fine-grained control over the conversion process with support for abbreviations, transliterations, and custom separators, while ensuring consistent behavior across different case styles—making it more reliable than simple string replacement functions.
