This must've been done a thousand times already. I have parsed addresses before but I cannot seem to wrap my head around this today. (Friday)

Some examples of user typed values:
100 N Main St
3001 No W Rubick Ave     && number=3001, st_prefix = No, Street=W Rubick, st_type = Ave
12 Sycamore Dairy Rd NW  && number = 12, street=Sycamore Dairy, st_type=Rd, st_suffix = NW
1312 S Cain St E Suite A10 && number = 1313, st_prefix=S, street=Cain, st_type=St, st_suffix=E, apt_room=Suite A10
100 N Main St NW Ste 110
210 Jones Dr Apt 1E
8700 Smith Rd
Parse the values typed above into these fields:
number c(10)        && 100, 3001, 12, 1312, 100, 210, ...
st_prefix c(10)     && NW, S, E, NE...
street c(30)        && Main, Cain, ...
st_type c(10)       && Blvd, ST, AV, ...
st_suffix c(10)     && NW, S, E, NE, ...
apt_room c(10)      && Apt 102, Suite 109, etc...
Anyone up to the task on a Friday?

TIA,
Tracy
