Selecting column(s) whose contents match certain values
Raw
select-column-based-on-row-values.md

This is inspired by a post here for the use of tidyverse to retrieve column(s) whose contents match certain value.

df |> select(where(function(x) any(grepl(",", x))))

The code above retrives any column that has a comma in it.
