dplyr & tidyverse for data processing

Abstract

dplyr is a powerful R-package to transform and summarize tabular data with rows and columns. It is part of a group of packages (including ggplot2) called the tidyverse, a collection of packages for data processing and visualisation. For further exploration please see the dplyr package vignette: Introduction to dplyr
