Sometimes, a dataset is broken into multiple tables. For instance, data is often split into multiple CSV files so that each download is smaller.
When we need to reconstruct a single data frame from multiple smaller data frames, we can use the dplyr
bind_rows() method. This method only works if all of the columns are the same in all of the data frames.
For instance, suppose that we have two data frames:
If we want to combine these two data frames, we can use the following command:
concatenated_dfs <- df1 %>% bind_rows(df_2)
That would result in the following data frame:
An ice cream parlor and a bakery have decided to merge.
The bakery’s menu is stored in the data frame
bakery, and the ice cream parlor’s menu is stored in the data frame
Create their new menu by concatenating the two data frames into a data frame called
