OpenRefine http://openrefine.org/ http://openrefine.org/ for years has been my go to tool when looking at csv or tsv. I really love this project.
> OpenRefine (formerly Google Refine) is a powerful tool for working with messy data: cleaning it; transforming it from one format into another; and extending it with web services and external data.
- MrMattWright 9y agoOh thanks for reminding me, I did look at that a while ago, it's absolutely great. The transforming steps are amazing. Time to have another look at it. Exploratory.io is similar (nice transformation steps using dplyr) but for me it was just a bit too close to actually writing the R code.
- baldfat 9y agoI LOVE writing code for R for scraping. I am actually serious. The Hadleyverse and the package tiddyverse have changed my programming life (Well learning Racket helped a ton also since there is Lisp in the foundations of R)
