Abstract

At a high level, the tidyverse is a language for solving data science challenges with R code.Its primary goal is to facilitate a conversation between a human and a computer about data.Less abstractly, the tidyverse is a collection of R packages that share a high-level design philosophy and low-level grammar and data structures, so that learning one package makes it easier to learn the next.
