Dear All, 

I know the text mining tool of R. but I am searching for a script or package in R (or actually any other software) that can extract Numbers  from literature, so that I can easily collect these numerical observation and then apply data analyses on it. 

 

 Any help ? 

Thanks

What format is your text in? If it is in strings, you should be able to use a regular expression (regex) such as 

\d+

where the "\d" stands for digit and the "+" indicates one or more.
