R programming Section 6. Dplyr in R. Lecture 4. Using mutate() function of dplyr to create new variables in R.

Dplyr is a data manipulation package that is part of the tidyverse universe, which is a collection of libraries that has the goal of making R faster, simpler and easier. Dplyr leverages the pipe structure, a better way to encapsulate functions. The library has dozens of functions available to perform data manipulation and wrangling. mutate() function is used to add new variables in a data frame which are formed by performing operation on existing variables.

mutate(x, expr)
x: Data Frame
expr: operation on variables
