11.4.5 str_replace_all problem

[DanOvando]

Hi Hadley,

Huge thanks for putting this book out there, amazing work as always. I've been going through the regex section (11.4.5) , and noticed what I believe is an error below

x <- c("1 house", "2 cars", "3 people")
str_replace_all(x, c("1" = "one", "2" = "two", "3" = "three"))
#> [1] "one house"  "one cars"   "one people"

Judging from the context, I think you want str_replace_all in this case to produce

#> [1] "one house"  "two cars"   "three people"

But it seems to be instead applying the first replacement to all matches? Suppose this is a stringr issue but thought it would be easier to point out here.

Thanks! For future reference, filing in stringr is slightly easier for me.
