Merge a dataframe with length one with another bigger

Question

My first dataframe is:

df1 <- "C:/User"

And the second:

df2
 [1] "/Desktop"                                              
 [2] "/Desktop/all"                    
 [3] "/Programms"

I would like to merge them to a df like this:

"C:/User/Desktop"
"C:/User/Desktop/all"
"C:/User/Programms"

@Pascal it gives them as separate columns , maybe need to merge those columns as well to get what OP wants — Ronak Shah, Oct 21 '15 at 05:54
@RonakShah So complicated. `df1` and `df2` are character vectors, not data.frame. — , Oct 21 '15 at 05:55
@Pascal Yes, that is true. Answer from Richard is the simplest, i agree! — Ronak Shah, Oct 21 '15 at 05:55

What you have there are character vectors, not data frames. You can simply use paste0().

x1 <- "C:/User"
x2 <- c("/Desktop", "/Desktop/all", "/Programms")
paste0(x1, x2)
# [1] "C:/User/Desktop"     "C:/User/Desktop/all" "C:/User/Programms"
