arrange() orders the rows of a data frame by the values of selected columns.

Unlike other dplyr verbs, arrange() largely ignores grouping; you need to explicitly mention grouping variables (or use .by_group = TRUE) in order to group by them, and functions of variables are evaluated once per data frame, not once per group.

Value

An object of the same type as .data. The output has the following properties:

  • All rows appear in the output, but (usually) in a different place.

  • Columns are not modified.

  • Groups are not modified.

  • Data frame attributes are preserved.

Details

Missing values

Unlike base sorting with sort(), NA are:

  • always sorted to the end for local data, even when wrapped with desc().

  • treated differently for remote data, depending on the backend.

Methods

This function is a generic, which means that packages can provide implementations (methods) for other classes. See the documentation of individual methods for extra arguments and differences in behaviour.

The following methods are currently available in loaded packages: dplyr (data.frame), plotly (plotly), tidySingleCellExperiment (SingleCellExperiment) .

Other single table verbs: mutate(), rename(), slice(), summarise()
