--- title: "Data Wrangling R" author: "Prof. Eric A. Suess" format: html: self-contained: true --- Some of the code from Chapter 4 and 5. In this chapter dplyr is introduced. We will be using dplyr all year. The main idea of data wrangling with dplyr are the 5 verbs. **select()** # take a subset of columns **filter()** # take a subset of rows **mutate()** # add or modify existing columns **arrange()** # sort the rows **summarize()** # aggregate the data across rows The dplyr package is part of the tidyverse. We will install and load the tidyverse. ```{r message=FALSE} library(mdsr) library(tidyverse) ``` # Star Wars dataset ```{r} data("starwars") glimpse(starwars) ``` # select() ```{r} starwars %>% select(name, species) ```
