Use desc() to sort a variable in descending order.
arrange(.data, ...)# S3 method for grouped_df
arrange(.data, ..., .by_group = FALSE)
A tbl. All main verbs are S3 generics and provide methods
for tbl_df(), dtplyr::tbl_dt() and dbplyr::tbl_dbi().
Comma separated list of unquoted variable names. Use
desc() to sort a variable in descending order.
If TRUE, will sort first by grouping variable. Applies to
grouped data frames only.
An object of the same class as .data.
The sort order for character vectors will depend on the collating sequence
of the locale in use: see locales().
When applied to a data frame, row names are silently dropped. To preserve,
convert to an explicit variable with tibble::rownames_to_column().
Other single table verbs: filter,
mutate, select,
slice, summarise
# NOT RUN {
arrange(mtcars, cyl, disp)
arrange(mtcars, desc(disp))
# grouped arrange ignores groups
by_cyl <- mtcars %>% group_by(cyl)
by_cyl %>% arrange(desc(wt))
# Unless you specifically ask:
by_cyl %>% arrange(desc(wt), .by_group = TRUE)
# }
