Tidyverse

The tidyverse is a collection of open source R packages introduced by Hadley Wickham[1] and his team that "share an underlying design philosophy, grammar, and data structures" of tidy data.[2] The functions contain several uncharacteristic features in comparison to other R programming paradigms including non-standard evaluation, which allows for unquoted character strings in most functions, and consistently using data as the first argument, which allows for liberal use of the magrittr pipe function: %>%.[3]


The core packages are ggplot2, dplyr, tidyr, readr, purrr, tibble, stringr, and forcats, which provide functionality to model, transform, and visualize data.[4] As of November 2018, the tidyverse package and some of its individual packages make up 5 out of the top 10 most downloaded R packages,[5] and are the subject of multiple books and papers.[6][7][8][9] It has been criticised by Norman Matloff and Bob Muenchen.[10][11]
