magrittr existed before the tidyverse and can be used on standalone perfectly fine.
In all benchmarks I've seen data.table is faster than dplyr on all tasks. Curious to see other results.
- thomasfedb 7y agoAt the scale of what I'm doing the benchmarks don't sway me, but I do like the syntax of data.table - it feels a bit like relational algebra.
- RosanaAnaDana 7y agoSo then I would assume you must be working with tables of less than 1000 rows, because thats pretty much the only case where it doesn't matter. At anything more than 1k rows, the differences are substantial.
- thomasfedb 7y agoHundreds of rows is about usual for me. I do analysis on clinical studies with human participants. Nothing too tricky, most of my munging runs in effectively zero time.
