mutate.skim_df: Mutate a skim_df

In ropenscilabs/skimr: Compact and Flexible Summaries of Data

Mutate a skim_df

Description

dplyr::mutate() currently drops attributes, but we need to keep them around for other skim behaviors. Otherwise the behavior is exactly the same. For more information, see https://github.com/tidyverse/dplyr/issues/3429.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'skim_df'
mutate(.data, ...)

Arguments

.data

A skim_df, which behaves like a tbl.

...

Name-value pairs of expressions, each with length 1 or the same length as the number of rows in the group, if using dplyr::group_by(), or in the entire input (if not using groups). The name of each argument will be the name of a new variable, and the value will be its corresponding value. Use NULL value in dplyr::mutate() to drop a variable. New variables overwrite existing variables of the same name. The arguments in ... are automatically quoted with rlang::quo() and evaluated with rlang::eval_tidy() in the context of the data frame. They support unquoting rlang::quasiquotation and splicing. See vignette("programming", package = "dplyr") for an introduction to these concepts.

Value

A skim_df object, which also inherits the class(es) of the input data. In many ways, the object behaves like a tibble::tibble().

See Also

dplyr::mutate() for the function's expected behavior.
