## Overview
dplyr is a grammar of data manipulation, providing a consistent set of
verbs that help you solve the most common data manipulation challenges:
- `mutate()` adds new variables that are functions of existing
variables
- `select()` picks variables based on their names.
- `filter()` picks cases based on their values.
- `summarise()` reduces multiple values down to a single summary.
- `arrange()` changes the ordering of the rows.
These all combine naturally with `group_by()` which allows you to
perform any operation “by group”. You can learn more about them in
`vignette("dplyr")`. As well as these single-table verbs, dplyr also
provides a variety of two-table verbs, which you can learn about in
`vignette("two-table")`.
If you are new to dplyr, the best place to start is the [data
transformation chapter](https://r4ds.had.co.nz/transform.html) in R for
data science.
## Backends
In addition to data frames/tibbles, dplyr makes working with other
computational backends accessible and efficient. Below is a list of
alternative backends:
- [dtplyr](https://dtplyr.tidyverse.org/): for large, in-memory
datasets. Translates your dplyr code to high performance
[data.table](https://rdatatable.gitlab.io/data.table/) code.
- [dbplyr](https://dbplyr.tidyverse.org/): for data stored in a
relational database. Translates your dplyr code to SQL.
- [sparklyr](https://spark.rstudio.com): for very large datasets
stored in [Apache Spark](https://spark.apache.org).
## Installation
``` r
# The easiest way to get dplyr is to install the whole tidyverse:
install.packages("tidyverse")
# Alternatively, install just dplyr:
install.packages("dplyr")
```
### Development version
To get a bug fix or to use a feature from the development version, you
can install the development version of dplyr from GitHub.
``` r
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("tidyverse/dplyr")
```
## Cheat Sheet
## Usage
``` r
library(dplyr)
starwars %>%
filter(species == "Droid")

starwars %>%

starwars %>%
group_by(species) %>%
summarise(
n = n(),
mass = mean(mass, na.rm = TRUE)
) %>%
filter(
n > 1,
mass > 50
)
#> # A tibble: 8 x 3
#> species n mass
#>
#> 1 Droid 6 69.8
#> 2 Gungan 3 74
#> 3 Human 35 82.8
#> 4 Kaminoan 2 88
#> 5 Mirialan 2 53.1
#> # … with 3 more rows
