Nest join

Description

Usage

Arguments

x	A data.frame or data.table

by	A character vector of variables to join by. If NULL, the default, the join will do a natural join, using all variables with common names across the two tables.

...	Other parameters passed on to methods

Examples

df1 <- tidytable(x = 1:3)
df2 <- tidytable(x = c(2, 3, 3), y = c("a", "b", "c"))

out <- nest_join(df1, df2)
out
out$df2
