group_vars.DataFrame: Grouping metadata

In jonocarroll/DFplyr: A `DataFrame` (`S4Vectors`) backend for `dplyr`

Grouping metadata

Description

This collection of functions accesses data about grouped data frames in various ways:

• group_data() returns a data frame that defines the grouping structure. The columns give the values of the grouping variables. The last column, always called .rows, is a list of integer vectors that gives the location of the rows in each group.

• group_keys() returns a data frame describing the groups.

• group_rows() returns a list of integer vectors giving the rows that each group contains.

• group_indices() returns an integer vector the same length as .data that gives the group that each row belongs to.

• group_vars() gives names of grouping variables as character vector.

• groups() gives the names of the grouping variables as a list of symbols.

• group_size() gives the size of each group.

• n_groups() gives the total number of groups.

See context for equivalent functions that return values for the current group.
