[r] Filter multiple values on a string column in dplyr

This can be achieved using dplyr package, which is available in CRAN. The simple way to achieve this:

  1. Install dplyr package.
  2. Run the below code
library(dplyr) 

df<- select(filter(dat,name=='tom'| name=='Lynn'), c('days','name))

Explanation:

So, once we’ve downloaded dplyr, we create a new data frame by using two different functions from this package:

filter: the first argument is the data frame; the second argument is the condition by which we want it subsetted. The result is the entire data frame with only the rows we wanted. select: the first argument is the data frame; the second argument is the names of the columns we want selected from it. We don’t have to use the names() function, and we don’t even have to use quotation marks. We simply list the column names as objects.
