function that extracts a common continuous sequence in R

Question

Tell me please, is there the function that extracts a common continuous sequence of characters from the symbol vector. Ie, for example, from the row vector at the input: c ("mom soap frame", "sweet mom", "dad, mom, me", "`mom`ent") get the output vector c ("mom")

@konvas: imho not really a duplicate, since here you want to look for a LCS within 1 vector, and not finding an LCS between two vectors. — Wimpel, Sep 14 '18 at 11:08

v <- c ("mom soap frame", "sweet mom", "dad, mom, me", "moment")

library(PTXQC)
LCSn(v, min_LCS_length = 0)

#[1] "mom"
