[@alcor2180]

Thanks a lot for this wonderful tutorial :)
Could we use
separate_wider_delim(cols = "coords", delim = ",", names =c("lat", "long"))
instead of using the stringr::str_split_fixed function.
So we can modify the dataframe in place without using a supplementary mutate function.
Furthermore the stringr package loading is unnecessary because it is included in the tidyverse package.

[@milos-makes-maps]

Hi alcor, I'm glad you liked the tutorial. Thank you for sharing your alternative method for separating columns in a dataframe. I agree that using `separate_wider_delim` from the `tidyrverse` package is a more concise and efficient way to do it. I appreciate your feedback and suggestion. Have a great day! :)
