Specifying Rows

library(ggplot2)
library(emphatic)
test_df <- head(mtcars, 10)

The methods for selecting rows works similar to tidyselect used by dplyr. This is a bespoke implementation of these selections, and may not work exactly the same:

selector description example
all() all rows all()
starts_with() rownames start with the given text starts_with("day")
ends_with() rownames end with the given text ends_width("2024")
everything() all rows (the default behaviour) everything()
all_of() all of the specified rownames all_of(c('mpg', 'wt'))
any_of() any of the specified rownames any_of(c('mpg', 'wt'))
matches() regular expression matches against rownames matches("day0\\d+")
contains() rowname contains the given text contains("value")
row_number() the number of row row_number() == 3
all() select everything all()
n() returns integer specifying number of rows rows = c(n(), n() / 2) will select last row and half-way

Select all rows
