The “rbind” Function in R

  • Package: Base R (no specific package required)

  • Purpose: Combines vectors, matrices, or data frames by row.

  • General Class: Data Manipulation

  • Required Argument(s):

    • Vectors, matrices, or data frames to be combined by row.

  • Notable Optional Arguments:

    • None

  • Example:

  • # Example data for using the rbind function
    names <- c("Alice", "Bob", "Charlie")
    ages <- c(25, 30, 22)

    # Combine two vectors into a data frame by row
    combined_df <- rbind(Names = names, Ages = ages)

    # Display the result
    print(combined_df)

  • In this example, the rbind function is used to combine two vectors (names and ages) into a data frame (combined_df) by row. The resulting data frame has two rows, one for names and one for ages. The rbind function is commonly used for combining data in a row-wise fashion, especially when working with data frames or matrices.
